When looking at the oscilloscope feature of a multi-instrument device or when comparing two benchtop oscilloscopes, the first specifications that we look at are the bandwidth and sample rate. While these are incredibly important specs, often most design work is done well within the limits of most products and the more critical specification to consider is resolution. Did you know that while most […]

Using Linux on a Portable Oscilloscope (While Keeping Traditional USB Functionality)
Digilent’s New Analog Discovery Pro 3450 Opens Things Up for Engineers By Kaitlyn Franz, Test Product Manager As design requirements become increasingly more complex, engineers around the world are asked to shorten design cycle time and increase output. Flexible test equipment that can research, validate, and test is one of the ways engineers can speed […]
Introducing 3DPP Technology
Power conversion can often be the bane of product designers, regardless of what they are designing. In space-constrained applications such as cutting-edge IoT devices or handheld medical devices, using standard converter modules can be limited by space and discrete power conversion design can be costly and time-consuming. To help designers get their designs to market […]
The UKCA Mark – Selling Into the UK After Brexit
By Andrew Johnson, Director of Product Management The withdrawal of the UK from the European Union or “Brexit” has been a turbulent journey for both sides, concluding on December 31, 2020, with the end of the “transition period” during which negotiations have taken place on new mutual trading arrangements. One of the consequences of Brexit […]

The Latest on IEC 62368-1: The Time to Act Is Now
By Andrew Johnson, Director of Product Management New safety standards based on IEC 62368-1 are superseding existing standards worldwide. In a move that keeps things simple for product vendors, regulators in the US and EU have decided to harmonize the date the new standards will supplant the outgoing 60950-1 and 60065 standards. This harmonized date […]
Six Reasons You Should Use an FPGA
In this article, we’ll be focusing on why FPGAs hit the sweet spot for processing power. Before we dive too deeply into this conversation, let’s address the “elephant in the room” – everything exists for a reason, even ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), CPUs (Central Processing Unit), and GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit). ASICs provide incredible performance per watt, and are thus very efficient, but they are also much […]
Light-Cure Technology – Fueling the Automotive Electronics Revolution
Achieve Superior Performance Mile After Mile By Chris Morrissey, Sr. Manager, Automotive Electronics BD, Dymax Corporation The desire to put self-driving cars on the road and the movement toward vehicle electrification is fueling unprecedented growth in the automotive industry. In the fast-changing landscape of design and assembly, engineers are striving to create better performing, more […]
Low Pressure Filtering of a Pressure Sensor’s Input
The Problem In some applications, high-frequency pressure transients may be present that distort the sensor’s output and degrade its ability to read the underlying changes in pressure. This can especially be a problem in low-pressure applications, such as medical measurements where discerning subtle differences is essential to successful diagnosis and monitoring. A common, well-known solution […]
White paper: 5G evolution – on the path to 6G
5G deployments have only recently started, and releases beyond R15 will continue to tap into the tremendous potential of 5G. However, as a new generation of cellular technology typically appears every 8-10 years, 6G can be expected around 2030. Download this white paper to explore the evolution from 5G to 6G from a service, air…
