⏰ Friday, July 19th from 5:25 Am - 11:25 AM PDT
[PRIME WEEK] Analog Discovery Systems Kit: USB Oscilloscope & Logic Analyzer
The Analog Discovery Systems Kit includes everything you'll need to verify and test a wide range of projects! Digilent's Analog Discovery 2 is a USB oscilloscope and multi-function instrument that all...that's cool, but for the price I'd rather get a keysight scope
_/\_WAVEFORMS WEDNESDAY _/\_ There is a menu for device options, where you can choose what to do when you close Waveforms, how USB detects, what Audio looks like and if you want to change your external triggers. #waveformstips
_/\_WAVEFORMS WEDNESDAY_/\_ Hate the multi-functional aspect of your Analog Discovery and rather a single tool? You can use the device configuration window to reallocate resources to tools that you use more often and then reset to factory default when you are done! #waveformstips
_/\_WAVEFORMS WEDNESDAY_/\_ If you need to compare your signal against a known signal, you can use the playback function. Upload a sound file, a previously saved waveform, or a dataset in a .csv into the waveform generator and hit play!
_/\_WAVEFORMS WEDNESDAY_/\_ Not sure if you want to take the plunge and buy one of our Test and Measurement devices? Take Waveforms for a test drive! We have a "play" mode that you can try some of the functionality with your PC Sound card! Check it out! ow.ly/zo4L50m7X9y
_/\_WAVEFORMS WEDNESDAY _/\_ One of the common criticisms of Waveforms' Protocol Analyzer is that it doesn't have CAN communication. Except, it does! If you are on Waveforms 3.01 or later, you will find the CAN Bus protocol!

EMC design in tomorrow’s semi- and fully autonomous vehicles
The car originated as a device for conveying a driver and passengers from A to B at speed with a minimum of effort. For more than 100 years, this concept of the car was extraordinarily popular. Now it...What do you think? There is a new argument submitted to the German standards committee working group that there is no need to perform emissions testing charging at >80% charge for ECE Reg. 10. The author recommends >20% instead.
