Dharsan, a new Digilent intern, used the LabVIEW Home Bundle and the NI myRIO to create a circuit that controls the speed of a fan based on a temperature reading.
Here are some of the tricks I have learned while using LabVIEW that will make your life much easier!
Earlier today, Josh (a fellow intern and blog contributor) wrote a blog post about logic gates. After reading through Josh’s post and gaining an understanding of the concepts and basic functions of those gates, I figured now would be the perfect time to learn some code. I am going to go over each logic gate and it’s code in Verilog (a hardware language), VHDL (another hardware language) and C (software language).
If you or anyone you know is learning the basics of electronics one of the things they’ll have to figure out is basic testing and measurement. We have a great project on the Learn site that can introduce one to basic waveform measurement and display with the help of the Analog Discovery.
If you’ve been keeping up with Digilent over that last couple of years, you may have heard about our merger with National Instruments. We’ve collaborated to create new products, and we’ve expanded our capabilities to work with more of NI’s products. One of those products is Multisim, a full-function testing and simulation environment for analog, digital, and power electronics designs.
On our website, WaveForms is described as a powerful suite of virtual instruments that brings analog and digital circuit design to your PC desktop. The instruments within WaveForms include an oscilloscope, logic analyzer, arbitrary waveform generator, digital pattern generator, power supplies, a voltmeter, virtual I/O devices, and a spectrum analyzer. Okay, so there’s a long list of fancy technical terms. But what makes WaveForms so special?
In modern engineering education, project-based learning (PBL) is transforming classrooms from theory-heavy lectures to hands-on, practical experiences. The Analog Discovery Studio Max (ADS Max) and its companion, the Canvas Max, …
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 …
Whether you’re a student, hobbyist, or professional engineer, the Analog Discovery 3 paired with WaveForms software offers a powerful and easy-to-use solution for test and measurement. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the …
In the world of wireless communication, flexibility and adaptability are key. Whether you’re a student exploring radio frequency (RF) systems, a researcher prototyping next-gen wireless protocols, or an engineer building …
