Imagine you have just a few measurements left before you can hand over your latest project to your sales team so that they can present it to potential customers. But …
COILS COILS COILS If you’re like me, you’ll have many wireless charging coils around your lab for various standards. They likely entered your lab well-dressed; adorned in well-labelled packaging, …
A classic interaction between a new FPGA user and an embattled older engineer (whether on our Forums or elsewhere) goes as follows: New engineer: My design doesn’t work, could you …
Acquiring and Measuring FM Radio Frequencies From Your Desktop Overview Using Waveforms’ Oscilloscope or Spectrum Analyzer instruments to acquire the typical FM radio frequencies is just one of the capabilities …
In this last installment of our four-part blog series about creating a smart lamp, we will bring everything together. The HAL for the WaveForms SDK we developed in the Part …
You open a Verilog example, launch Vivado for the first time, or start reading for a digital design course, and one term keeps showing up: RTL. It usually appears as …
At events like ASEE, there is a lot of conversation around tools, curriculum, and new ways to deliver technical content. All of those things matter. But one student poster I …
