The goose bump sensor being tested by a lucky volunteer (via KAIST)There is a new sensor being developed by a South Korean firm which can actually detect goose bumps of varying sizes and the length of time in which the goose bumps persist. KAIS...
Dave Young of Young Circuit Designs is publishing a series of articles and videos on element14 every other week to describe his experience in upgrading from his trusty Tektronix TDS2024B to a new Tektronix MDO3104. See his other articles in the serie...
OK, Great feedback from the Sunshine test for these multimeter's from Agilent, I did not have time when shooting the previous video to do an indoor version too, so now I have As you will see the OLED display wins hands down regarding visibility ...
A few days ago I watched an excellent Agilent WEB Cast regarding sampling signals using ADC devices basically. This was focused around Agilent Equipment but the principals presented some very interesting possibilities that could be applied to any ele...
I happened to be out back filming content for my summer project, tThe Electronic Referee and I needed to check a voltage on my test rig, I had a choice of an OLED meter or the LCD I decided to video a quick test to see which is most usable in th...
University of Illinois Electronic Skin is perfect for medical diagnostics. (via University of Illinois)Wearable computing has gained momentum since the beginning of the 21st century with companies like Google, Sony and Apple bringing augmented realit...
Consider this scenario in which Dave and CJ have been working on a design that uses a Li-Ion battery charger chip. They have been collaborating between their labs; CJ in Madison, WI and Dave in Denver, CO. As with any remote development the snags are...

Fluke Connect With A Single User:CJ and Dave wanted to get to know the Fluke Connect gear pretty well before trying to collaborate on their joint project. They start with If the units don’t work for the single user case for real measurements, they wo...
After making an initial post about my research plans for psychoacoustic masking and audio steganography using the Agilent 33622A, I left for a month long trip to Europe and Iceland. I'm back now with plenty of interesting travel experiences and...
If you are a fan of the show you have seen Ben frequently use his Agilent handheld oscilloscope to troubleshoot projects. He was curious what he could do with some of the other scopes out there so The Ben Heck show hit the road to the Madison A...
In the previous blog I explained the creation of complex RF digital waveforms on the 33622A generator. I thought that it would be nice to use these signals in a sort of real world scenario, and maybe push it a little bit further. So, I devised a...
We don't know many people who are big fans of the standard Test and Measurement user interface, especially with Digital Multimeters (DMMs). Sure, there are some products out there that are taking advantage of tablets and cell phones, but they can...
Hello everyone, One of the uses the Agilent 33622A can have, is that of a signal source in an automated test system. Automated test systems are used on the production lines to test for defects, i...
DC measurements Although the PA1000 is touted as a Single Phase Power Analyser I tried it out as a DC Power Analyser and it seems to work quite well.My tests also were a good excuse of using the Alligator Clips rather than the Breakout Box. ...
After creating baseband IQ data, the next step in my test setup was to take these signals into a IQ modulator, which was supposed to produce RF modulated QAM signal in band between 20-65 MHz, in compliance with DOCSIS 2.0/3.0 standard, used in cable ...
One of the features of the new 33600 and also the previous 33500 series of arbitrary generators is easy creation of baseband I and Q signals.I was interested in this, so I explored this a little bit. The first choice is obvious, Agilent has an option...
UK electronic musician, Clark recently commissioned video artist Vincent Oliver to provide the visuals for his upcoming 'Phosphor' tour and in doing so revived the fortunes of some old oscilloscopes. Clark, who is known for impressive v...
This is the first blog post of my Agilent 33622A arbitrary waveform generator Roadtest review. Initial impressions review is at: http://www.element14.com/community/roadTestReviews/1759 One of the prime features of Agilent's 33600 and 33500 s...
Hey guys, For this blog post, I decided to show how I used the Agilent 33622A Waveform Generator to design and test a small piece from a bigger project I'm working on and use it to prove a technique of i...
Thanks to the 33622A AWG provided by Element 14 and Agilent for Review I now have the means to create and transmit frequencies up into the FM and AM Radio bands, This is a link Back to the Main 33622A Review http://www.element14.com/...
link Back to the Main 33622A Review http://www.element14.com/community/roadTestReviews/1744 I have already demonstrated how to use the Agilent 33622A to measure a capacitor or Inductor by leveraging the fast rise time square wave out...
With the 33622A Arbitrary Waveform generator I was sent for review from Element 14, I have discovered it is possible to use it for some basic component measurements with surprising accuracythis is a link back to the primary review http://www.element1...
