Editor's note: In this second installment of a four-part series on debugging FPGA designs, author Brad Frieden explains that when debugging an FPGA-based system, it can be very helpful to look at key ...

Probing is critical to making quality oscilloscope measurements, and often the probe is the first link in the oscilloscope measurement chain. If probe performance is not adequate for your application, ...

Do you remember your first oscilloscope? Maybe we have entered the era in which younger readers think of a sleek model with an LCD screen, but for the slightly older among us the image that will come ...

Recently, an EDN reader asked “Why do oscilloscope manufacturers put amplifiers on their probe tips rather than in the oscilloscope?” Placing the amplifier in the probe minimizes signal losses in the ...

If you want to measure AC or DC current with an oscilloscope, a current clamp is a great way to do it. The clamp surrounds the wire, so you don’t need to break the connection to take your measurements ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Literally hundreds of different oscilloscope probes are available (Fig. 1), so how do you choose the right one? There’s ...
