What is WaveForms?

WaveForms is the free software application for the Analog Discovery 2 and enables use of the available analog and digital oscilloscope instruments. The software has been refined by customer feedback for over 10 years and features a PC and laptop friendly user interface that has the feel of traditional benchtop software. The Analog Discovery 2 communicates with WaveForms via a USB connection to your computer, allowing users to capture, record, analyze, and generate mixed signal and mixed domain waveforms. WaveForms can be downloaded and installed in under 60 seconds and can be tested without hardware using its demo mode. In addition to the use of instruments in the application, the WaveForms has a script editor tool, which allows custom scripting of the instrument in JavaScript. WaveForms is designed to be run on a laptop or desktop computer and is Mac, Windows, and Linux compatible.

The following instruments are available in the WaveForms application for the Analog Discovery 2:

WaveForms Spectrum Analyzer

  • Oscilloscope
  • Waveform Generator
  • Power Supplies
  • Voltmeter
  • Data Logger
  • Logic Analyzer
  • Pattern Generator
  • Static I/O
  • Spectrum Analyzer
  • Network Analyzer
  • Impedance Analyzer
  • Curve Tracer
  • Protocol Analyzer

 

For even more customization potential, the WaveForms Software Development Kit (SDK) can be used to create custom applications and scripts in Python, C, and additional languages. The Analog Discovery 2 is also compatible with LabVIEW and the Digilent Toolbox for compatibility with MathWorks' MATLAB Data Acquisition Toolbox

    Analog Discovery 2 Bundle

    Posted by Tomasz on 16th Nov 2021

    This product is a masterpiece. Very versatile and useful, at least for a hobbyist like me. I have also used it successfully in my workplace, where much more expensive instruments are used.

    Handy reference tool for working from home during COVID

    Posted by Digilent Customer on 11th Jun 2020

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and as a PE working from home, this tool allows for very nice professional looking screenshots of scope captures. Very impressed with the impedance analyzer functionality. The software provides a very easy to follow diagram of how to setup. Also really liked using the ramp (or arbitrary) waveform generator for debug.

    Does not work on my MacBook Pro

    Posted by Digilent Customer on 12th May 2020

    I regret not digging into reviews and the forum to find out the problems and lack of support for using the device on a MacBook. I guess it works for some people but I cannot get it to connect. Works fine on a Windows PC.

    Beats My Expectations

    Posted by Grant on 28th Apr 2020

    So far, I’ve only used the oscilloscope. It’s easy to use and has the features one would expect for an oscilloscope. The only basic difference is the AC/DC selection is via a jumper, not a setting. The only item I wish came with the scope probe package is a probe ground clip to header pin ground wire.

    I like it

    Posted by Tony​ Cook on 23rd May 2019

    The GUI is very good, the triggering works well on repetitive signals, if it works as well for one off events it will be a real winner. Really like the AWG function too. All I need for home handyman activities in one small package.

    Great Little Device

    Posted by Rob Z. on 25th Mar 2019

    I didn’t know what to expect but, was pleasantly surprised. I’m just beginning my journey into tube amplifiers and this device certainly will help me understand how a tube amp functions. The software supplied works great and testing the audio output using the signal generator and the spectrum analyzer is nice to have in such a small package. I believe this unit will come in very handy as I travel through this journey. Well done.

    More functionality than I expected.

    Posted by Vern Rotert on 25th Apr 2018

    I was needing a simple oscilloscope and waveform generator but I got much more with the analyzers, power supplies, voltmeter, pattern generator and discrete I/Os. I love it.

    Great Box, Educational material is fair

    Posted by Digilent Customer on 11th Apr 2018

    The box is great, I had been wondered wether its noise level make sense to the 14 bits resolution. But the box performed over my guess. I love it! It would be really nice if it could offer LPF that prevent the alias effect. I may want USB isolation too as a standard option (or bundle). Waveform tool has worked well so far. I may see a positive surprise while I play more. It would be nice if there is a tutorials that would help for Basic operations and Scripting :-)
