Engineering education evolves quickly, but some fundamentals never go out of style. Field‑Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have been a training ground for generations of engineers because they teach students how …
In industrial environments, unplanned downtime isn’t just inconvenient, it’s expensive. Equipment failures can halt production, compromise safety, and disrupt operations. While traditional maintenance strategies like reactive repair or scheduled servicing …
Seven-segment displays are a classic tool in digital electronics, used to show numerical data in everything from clocks to calculators. At Digilent, we like to integrate these displays into our …
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 …
Hi there Digilent Blog readers! I’m Dr. Brian Faulkner, professor of Electrical Engineering at Milwaukee School of Engineering in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, where I teach introductory circuit theory and power …
SPICE simulations are the tool of choice for engineers when designing analog or mixed-signal circuits. Multisim Live from Digilent as browser-based simulator makes this task easy and with the Analog …

Digilent recently announced the release of two new members of the Analog Discovery Pro 5000 Series, the ADP5470 and ADP5490, which are both four-channel mixed-signal oscilloscopes offering substantially higher bandwidths …
Let’s talk about clocking. It’s crucial to the functionality of FPGA boards and digital design in general, as all synchronous logic depends on clocks. In this article, we’ll define some …
Are you looking for an intuitive and efficient way to teach or learn the fundamentals of digital electronics? The Digilent Digital Trainer Canvas for Analog Discovery Studio is the perfect …
In the spirit of the holidays, this is some plain-old fun. We’ve talked about video games implemented in FPGAs before – https://digilent.com/blog/?s=game – but what about the other way around? …
Engineering education evolves quickly, but some fundamentals never go out of style. Field‑Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have been a training ground for generations of engineers because they teach students how …
Engineering education unfolds over time through courses, labs, and projects that steadily build a student’s capacity to think like an engineer. The strongest programs give students chances to connect theory …
When working on complex circuits, whether in an academic lab or a professional prototyping environment, having the ability to analyze multiple signals simultaneously is critical. The Analog Discovery Studio Max …
Averaging several single-point measurements you place with oscilloscope cursors is a practical way to get a stable “representative” value of a signal at specific times or levels. WaveForms doesn’t (currently) …
