Some time ago, we had an old NES controller floating around the office. It wasn’t your run-of-the-mill NES controller, though – it had been “tampered” with. Instead of the normal …
One lucky user was tasked to see what the Genesys ZU was capable of.
Pablo at ControlPaths.com has written a guide for creating a custom AXI IP using the Genesys ZU, but any Zynq MPSoC will do. We’re partial to the Genesys ZU though. …
The Arty S7, our FPGA development board using the cost efficient Xilinx Spartan 7, gives users plenty of I/O and expansion options to work with. Since its inception in 2018, …
Pablo from controlpaths.com lent his expertise in Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and applied it to our Eclypse Z7 board (using the SYZYGY Zmod ADC and DAC, and Xilinx’s xFFT IP). …
In the world of artificial intelligence (AI), the recognition of handwritten digits proves that you got your neurons right and in working condition. This application of AI is already quite …
A discussion of how ground potential differences can (and will) effect oscilloscope measurements.
Picture this scenario: you need to develop an embedded vision application – something like an object detection system or real time digital video processing – but you don’t have the …
Create a unique lightshow experience with the Pmod KYPD and Arduino!
Delve deeper into Ian’s beverage can Theramin project with this examination of an oscillator.
The Best SDR Projects: From Amateur Radio to Satellite Tracking Software defined radio (SDR) is a digital window into signals you normally can’t see. Aircraft, ships, satellites, utility meters, amateur …
Most wireless tools are built for one job. A dedicated spectrum analyzer monitors frequencies. A GPS receiver locks onto satellites. A protocol tester checks a specific wireless standard. Each device …
How SDR Works: Understanding the Mechanics of the SDR Signal Chain Software-defined radio (SDR) has transformed the way engineers, researchers, and students interact with wireless systems. Instead of relying on …
What Is SDR (Software Defined Radio)? Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a radio communication system that performs many traditional radio functions in software instead of dedicated hardware circuits. Tasks such …
