How to Test a Relay With a Multimeter: A Detailed Guide A multimeter tests a relay in two ways. First, set it to ohms (Ω) mode and measure the coil …
To measure current with a multimeter, you break the circuit and insert the meter in series. Set the meter to A (amps) or mA, plug the red probe into the …
The Analog Discovery Pro 2440 and Analog Discovery Pro 2450 combine capable hardware with WaveForms software that is designed for everyday measurement work. The focus is not just on capturing …
Mixed‑signal validation often starts with more tools than necessary. An oscilloscope for analog signals, a logic analyzer for digital buses, and a separate signal generator just to get known inputs …
The Question A Digilent forum user working on a vintage computing project needed to troubleshoot hardware built around a 6502 CPU. Their goal was to extract the CPU’s address and …
NI USB oscilloscopes have a strong track record. If your workflow specifically depends on NI‑SCOPE driver features, InstrumentStudio, or formal calibration services, then NI’s modular instruments are the right path. For most prototyping, research, and validation teams, the Analog …
Digilent’s WaveForms software includes a small built-in FPGA utility, which is used to configure (program) the FPGA on supported Digilent boards directly from within WaveForms. If you’ve been around for …
The Question A user getting started with the Analog Discovery 3 (AD3) wanted to generate a waveform using the Arbitrary Waveform Generator while simultaneously sampling an analog input – both …
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) …
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 …
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 …
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 …
