It’s that time of the year again. No, not the one where the season is changing in earnest, but time for a new release version of the WaveForms software! Historically …
We recently revamped a tutorial on the Digilent Reference site which details how to set up an LWIP echo server for Zynq-7000 boards: Getting Started with Zynq Servers. This post is …
In the vast realm of data acquisition, the precision and accuracy of measurements—particularly when working with digital input/output (I/O)—play a crucial role in extracting meaningful insights. This Tech Tip will …
Dual mode is a newly introduced feature of WaveForms that came out when the AD3 launched. It allows you to connect two of the same kind of Mixed Signal Oscilloscope …
Data acquisition solutions from Digilent’s MCC DAQ products provide for a wide range of applications and interfaces. Whether you are measuring current, voltage, temperature, strain or digital signals, Digilent offers …
The excitement about Digilent’s new Analog Discovery 3 is spreading, and Dave from EEVblog has a lot to say about the latest iteration of our popular product line. This new version features …
Hardware-in-the-Loop Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) is a powerful technique that enables the testing and validation of complex systems by integrating real hardware components into a simulation environment. It allows engineers to verify …
The 4-20 mA current loop interface came about because of the need to transmit information over long distances. System designers found that instead of a changing a voltage signal [that …
The Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is today’s go-to device for changing an analog signal into a digital binary value. The ADC takes a snapshot in time that approximates the actual value …
What is jitter? Jitter is the variance in where exactly a clock falls. You might expect that a 100 MHz clock has edges that occur exactly every 10 ns. However, …
So what is it? The Digilent Test & Measurement Toolbox allows users to acquire and analyze data in MATLAB using Digilent’s test and measurment devices. Featuring analog data streaming, digital …
Using Additional Software to View Date Remotely Now that we’ve created a working distributed data collection and display system (see parts 1 through 4), let’s briefly explore other software packages available …
Last month, I described a simple stateless web application using Python and Plotly’s Dash module. It created a dashboard allowing users to select waveform channels, update rate, and the number …
Software defined radio (SDR) replaces traditional radio frequency (RF) hardware with programmable software, giving you dynamic control over modulation, bandwidth, and frequency. This technology allows for wideband, flexible experimentation across …
Fritzing is a free tool that allows users to create clean and professional images of electronics projects for teaching or sharing. Digilent uses Fritzing in all of our intern-created projects, and we’re working closely with Fritzing to have a bin of Digilent parts soon.
At Digilent, we’re proud to support educators and students around the world in bringing digital design concepts to life. One recent example comes from Yeditepe University in Istanbul, Turkey, where …
