FPGA has various configuration modes: the parallel master mode involves one FPGA and one EPROM; the master-slave mode supports programming multiple FPGAs with one PROM; the serial mode can use serial PROM to program the FPGA; and the peripheral mode allows the FPGA to be programmed by a microprocessor as a peripheral device. How to … Read more
To work more efficiently Oscilloscopes are undoubtedly one of the greatest inventions in the field of testing and measurement. They present the microscopic world of signals to us, allowing us to observe closely, capture problems precisely, and discover potential issues, making them very useful for improving product quality. More than ten years ago, when I … Read more
Acquisition Time Acquisition time is the time required for the sample-and-hold circuit to stabilize the sample capacitor voltage within 1 LSB range of the new input value after releasing the hold state.The formula for acquisition time (Tacq) is as follows: Aliasing According to the sampling theorem, input signal frequencies above the Nyquist frequency are referred … Read more

In the field of modern industrial automation, speed measurement is an essential part of control systems. Industrial speed sensors act like the “eyes” of equipment operation, providing precise and real-time speed monitoring solutions for various machinery. From conveyor belts to robots, and from printing equipment to metallurgical production lines, speed sensors have quietly become the … Read more
Abstract There are numerous articles introducing the performance of logic analyzers, but few specifically discuss the measurement probes for logic analyzers. It is important to note that the instrument itself is only part of the measurement system; the choice of measurement probes and their manufacturing processes are also crucial. Many times, we use the most … Read more
1. Introduction Recently, I built an R2R ladder resistor DAC circuit using resistors with a precision of one thousandth. Through testing, the circuit achieved a linear accuracy of 12 bits. Now, I ponder a question: if I reduce the order of R2R, for example to 12 bits, what would its linear accuracy be? Below, I … Read more
