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 …
Introducing JupyterLab JupyterLab is a relatively new tool. It is an open-source development environment (IDE) for working with Jupyter notebooks. Notebooks are primarily used to combine program code, code results, …
Using a data acquisition device (DAQ) can be challenging. Often, connecting to a single channel produces a suitable measurement. Yet, DAQs seldom have a single channel; trouble usually happens when …
Welcome back to the Digilent Blog! You may have heard about how Digilent is building support for our Analog Discovery devices within the DASYLab software through a custom module. This …
Welcome to the world of educational data acquisition (DAQ) and electronics hobby projects! Whether you’re an engineering student, a seasoned industry professional, a curious hobbyist, or a dedicated professor, DAQ …
Data acquisition (DAQ) is the process of capturing and converting physical signals from the real world into digital data that can be processed by computers. This seemingly simple concept lies …
At Digilent, we champion the power of data in driving informed decisions across diverse industries. From optimizing industrial processes to monitoring vital signs in healthcare, the ability to effectively collect …
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 …
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 …
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 …
Distributing the Applications to View the Data Remotely The goal of this article series is to demonstrate how to create a data acquisition system on one system, and view the …
Signal processing starts with data. Whether you are working with sensors, audio signals, or transient events, the ability to capture clean, high-resolution data directly affects what you can learn from …
Most parts of engineering work are fairly flexible at this point. You can review schematics from anywhere, push firmware changes without being tied to a specific location, and work through …
Howdy from Ft. Worth, Texas, where another NI Connect came to a fabulous end last week. Digilent was proud to share new tech, provide live demonstrations of our fan favorites, and generally …
Outfitting a lab is rarely about finding a single perfect instrument. In most cases, the goal is to choose tools that are flexible, reliable, and capable of supporting a range …
