When perusing our site, you’ve probably noticed the section entitled programming solutions, or looked through our FPGA (field programmable gate array) boards and seen the acronym JTAG (Joint Test Action Group). …
By now, you’re probably familiar with the ZYBO board. You’ve seen the ZYBOt, a tutorial for using embedded Linux with ZYBO, and how to tweet webcam photos with a ZYBO. Thanks to one intrepid Instructables user, you can now learn how to make a digital oscilloscope with a ZYBO.
Digilent Adept is a light-weight program that allows users to quickly load .bit files onto your FPGA chip. The Power of Adept is in its simplicity and speed.
The very basis of computers is binary. In electronics everything can be boiled down to 1s and 0s. Logic gates are digital circuits that take one or more binary inputs and produce a binary output. You can check out the basis of logic with Boolean Algebra.
One of the really cool projects to come out of the Digilent Design Contest is a virtual touchscreen game hands-on tutorial for the ZYBO. This Instructable provides step-by-step instructions for customizing hardware to emulate a touchscreen on a simple TFT (thin-film transistor) monitor using camera and finger detection
The goal of this Instructable by myronking is to build a simple two-wheeled motorized robot controlled by a ZedBoard. You’ll learn about communication and control logic with FPGAs.
A project that I’ve been working on (and off) for while has been the titular tweeting webcam photos with a ZYBO.
One of the companies we work closely with is Xilinx, and we’re honored that they feature some of our products on their partner pages. The Digilent partner page not only has information about our company, but links to our products that use a Xilinx FPGA (and a few accessories).
Guest contributor Kursat Gol provides a review of his project testing the NetFPGA-1G-CML with a laptop computer.
We hope you had a great weekend, even though we’re sad it’s over! Want to end those Monday blues and work on a fun FPGA project? Take a leaf out of Instructable …
What are some more things to do with an FPGA? One Instructables user, krosenfeld7, made a guide for an FPGA composer.
We’ve talked a lot lately about the Nexys 4 DDR lately, and we definitely hope you like it as much as we do here at Digilent. But what are the roots of this awesome board?
Building a Raspberry Pi-Based DAQ System for an SAE Baja Challenge Car The SAE Baja Challenge pushes engineering students far beyond the classroom. Teams are tasked with designing, building, and racing a …
The idea of “remote lab access” comes up a lot, but it can still feel a little abstract in practice. After dealing with the usual back-and-forth around lab access, the …
I’m not an engineer. But this will be my third time attending the ASEE Annual Conference with Digilent, and each year I leave feeling the same way: inspired. My background …
A large U.S. university with over 1,400 undergraduate electrical engineering students has developed a scalable approach to delivering hands-on lab experiences – both on campus and fully online. Serving a …
