Hello Element14 Community!
This is a short blog post, part of my MultiComp PRO 3D Printer Filament RoadTest, in which I will show how I usually calibrate new filaments for my 3D Printer.
The 3D printer filaments I got for thi...
Introduction
I was very exited and grateful to Element14 to get an opportunity to evaluate Arduino Pro Nicla Voice board. I wanted to use it as an input device for my local chat bot, so it can be always on, and be my digital companion....
Dear Community members,
I m working on Arduino due board Rev 3 version. I have observed that this board gets reset in Random fashion . I unable to find out the reason. If Somebody who has worked more extensively than me on this board,might help...

I recently received part of the prize from Element14 as the fifth prize winner in NI LabVIEW and Test Automation Beginner’s Course. Th...
In this last part of the Polarfire Video SOC review we'll develop a custom AI network from scratch to use the VectorBlox SDK and run on it on the Polarfire video board. Then we'll try to port a current state of the art like (SOTA) stereo networ...
Introduction
In the previous blog we have seen the data coming from serial device. In this blog, we will see how to monitor the inference result through BLE communication.
Receiving Methods

Introduction
Thanks to E14, I received a RASynBoard dev kit as a part of Road-test. For a small product, this kit has so many features that cannot be covered in a single blog. So, I have decided to split the content into two blogs, each focusing on d...
Intro
I am road testing a Digilent Analog Discovery 3 which included a BNC Adapter accessory module. The adapter connects to the Analog Discovery module via a 30 pin header, but there are no other mechanical fasteners to stabilize the connection. BNC...
VectorBlox SDK Setup
in this part we'll install the VectorBlox SDK and test the example networks on board. The VectorBlox AI accelerator makes use of an SDK that leverages the openVino framework to convert AI networks from floating point format desig...
This part of the Polarfire SOC Video Kit review will detail the installation of the required software for working with the Polarfire Video SOC development board. Ubuntu 22.04 LTS was used for all the development work however similar steps can b...
This is the third and last blog post before the final review for the Rohm BD9G500EFJ-EVK-001 RoadTest. Here, I'm going to explore one of the many tools Rohm has available on its website to assist with the design process.
To get access, you have t...
This is the second part of the Eval Kit BD9G500EFJ-EVK-001 RoadTest. If you have missed the first blog, you can check it out here.
In this blog I'm going to design a buck converter to provide power to one servo. Input power is supposed to be 4s L...
I recently had the good privilege of being selected to receive the Keysight E36731A Battery Emulator and Profiler as part of Element14's roadtest program. Now, batteries might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but having spent some years worki...
First of all, I want to thank element14 and Rohm for this great opportunity: testing the BD9G500EFJ-EVK-001 evaluation board and becoming for the first time a roadtester.
What's special about the BD9G500EFJ-EVK-001 ?
The BD9G500EFJ-EVK-001 is a...
6.4 Aim-TTi SMU4201 vs Keithley 2450
As of 8/26/23, both the Aim-TTi SMU4201 ($5,250) and the Keithley 2450 ($6,870), show enough similarities in their electrical capabilities, that it makes sense to compare them to see how they differ. Here I w...
6.3 Introduction
Batteries are energy storage devices that store chemical energy to then convert it into electrical energy when required. With the increasing demand for mobile devices and electric vehicles, batteries have become a fundamental compone...
6.2 Diode characterization
A diode is a two-terminal device that facilitates current conduction in one direction and blocks it in the other. The I-V characterization of a diode can be challenging due to the exponential relationship between voltage an...
6.1 Instrument Interfaces
Modern bench test equipment usually support different workflows. Controlling the instrument from the front-panel has the advantage of not requiring a connected computer, but the disadvantage that the instrument's screen ...
My ADI ADALM2000 device, received under Element14's Roadtest program, came at a time when I had begun working on a project related to communications on relatively long (few kilometers long) twisted pairs. I have used cables in differen...
I recently received an ADALM2000 unit, designed and built by Analog Devices, as part of the roadtest program. I have been using this opportunity to explore all that the device offers.
The good thing about the ADALM2000 is that it is a small in...
