Abstract

In this study, it is aimed to implement a digital oscilloscope by FPGA architectures to correspond the requirements of laboratories in the educational institutions in an economic way. It is shown that non-professional oscilloscopes can be implemented with low-cost, educational purposed FPGAs. It is also able to measure high frequency signal by high speed FPGAs. Terasic DE0 kit is used as hardware and Quartus II is used as software in this application. The sine signal which is a widely known signal used to measure is generated by the signal generator. The graphical view of the sampled signal in the FPGA is shown on a 640x480 pixeled VGA monitor. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
