When we use a microcontroller to flip a few GPIOs or talk SPI to a peripheral chip, we are often overlooking that it will usually contain an array of built-in peripherals that were once the preserve ...

(Phys.org)—An arbitrary waveform generator can, as its name implies, generate waves of almost any shape by controlling the amplitude, frequency, phase, and other wave characteristics. Waveform ...

Over on YouTube [Andrew Neal] has a Function Generator Build for Beginners. As beginner videos go this one is fairly comprehensive. [Andrew] shows us how to build a square-wave generator on a ...

A 200-kilowatt demonstration version of Wave Swell Energy's fascinating "blowhole" power generator has been deployed at Grassy Harbour on King Island, off the Australian island state of Tasmania, and ...

The mid-term future for fuel efficient vehicles with useful range is likely a hybrid solution of electric motors powered by batteries, topped up by a fuel-burning generator. Dr. Norbert Müller at ...

I hereby declare 2005 “The year of the waveform generator” because of the unusually high number of product introductions. I've identified eight companies that have introduced function or arbitrary ...

An arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) is a powerful and flexible signal source capable of generating any wave shape within the bandwidth and amplitude range of the generator. Populating an AWG with ...

A wave energy generator which partially sank off the South Australian coast four years ago will be dismantled and its submerged portion converted into an artificial reef. The $7 million wave power ...

A wave power generator that can harvest energy no matter which way the sea is running has won the UK round of James Dyson's engineering award. The Renewable Wave Power generator seeks to overcome the ...
