-This page is under construction. +There might be cases when you need to provide a complex stimulus to a circuit, or you might want to condition digital signals before measurement, in both cases using an FPGA board can be handy. However, FPGA boards are usually configured from a PC, so including them in a standalone measurement system might not have been an option until now.
