With no class requiring it and no board experience going in, one engineering student designed a five-stage pipelined MIPS processor from scratch in VHDL and ran it on a Digilent …
Most students do not struggle with equations. They struggle with understanding what those equations actually do. In many learning environments, students define a system, run a process, and then interpret …
At events like ASEE, there is a lot of conversation around tools, curriculum, and new ways to deliver technical content. All of those things matter. But one student poster I …
NI Connect 2026 is officially underway, and it’s great to see the NI community coming together again. This week is all about sharing ideas, reconnecting with familiar faces, and talking …
Hello readers, Oscar Fonseca here, product manager at Emerson, working closely with our NI and Digilent academic customers. In this blog, I’m going to compare the NI ELVIS III and the Digilent Analog Discovery Studio Max (ADS Max). As someone who …
Does measurement still matter? Engineering has always been shaped by its tools. From early lab instruments to modern software and test systems, the way engineers observe, verify, and evaluate their …
As engineering programs evolve to support larger enrollments, online learners, and more flexible learning environments, institutions face an important question: How should students access the tools they need for hands-on …
At Digilent, we understand the evolving needs of engineering education. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce the Analog Discovery Studio Max (ADS Max), a versatile and comprehensive electronics laboratory solution …
Shifting Academic Focus In late June, Digilent attended the American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) Annual Conference. We’re no strangers to the event, and have been proud to show off …
With no class requiring it and no board experience going in, one engineering student designed a five-stage pipelined MIPS processor from scratch in VHDL and ran it on a Digilent …
The Best SDR Projects: From Amateur Radio to Satellite Tracking Software defined radio (SDR) is a digital window into signals you normally can’t see. Aircraft, ships, satellites, utility meters, amateur …
Most wireless tools are built for one job. A dedicated spectrum analyzer monitors frequencies. A GPS receiver locks onto satellites. A protocol tester checks a specific wireless standard. Each device …
Software-defined radio (SDR) has transformed the way engineers, researchers, and students interact with wireless systems. Instead of relying on fixed hardware to perform radio functions, SDR platforms move much of …
