I recently came across an article by Rich Pell on EE Times discussing headphone equalization (EQ). Pell describes inserting a couple of notches to compensate for ear-canal resonances. I had to check this out.
Several manufacturers have been publicizing 12-bit scopes lately. How important is higher resolution, and do you need it?
Gadgetech's recent blogs on test thoroughness reminded me how some faults are found only because a specific method is followed, along with a bit of luck. This tale also demonstrates the beauty of a four-channel scope that sees almost everything that goes on simultaneously.
Recently I was working on the design of a simple quadrature upconversion module for a Software Defined Radio (SDR) front-end. What it did was fairly straightforward -- take the baseband I and Q outputs from a direct-conversion receiver (an ADRF6850) and feed these to two modulators (the good old MC1496), configured as I and Q modulators, then combine ...
In some previous blogs, we've discussed iOS apps, oscilloscope and other, as well as remotely controlling a scope from a device. Now, I want to get a cheap Android tablet to see what it can do in this arena. But you need to help me pick one.
