Replace Digital Discovery

[haavardmk]

Hi Forum!

Does Digilent have a product that could replace the functionality of the digital discovery? I'm thinking more IO's pattern generator and analyzer.

Thanks!

Hi @haavardmk,

I'm not certain what you are asking. Are you wanting to know if there is a product that dedicates additional I/O pins for the logic analyzer and pattern generator or am I misunderstanding your question?

Or alternatively, what functionality are you missing or wish that the Digital Discovery had?

Thanks,

We use the digital discovery in a system today but it is a bit hard to integrate smoothly with the hardware. Also having a bit more Multi-purpose Digital I/O would be nice.

Hi @haavardmk,

I apologize for the delay.

Digilent does not have an alternate product that is similar to the Digital Discovery but has more I/O pins, nor am I currently aware of any upcoming products on the roadmap that would fulfill this need (https://forum.digilent.com/topic/26297-is-an-updated-digital-discovery-in-the-digilent-products-roadmap/).

With regards to your comment on integrating the Digital Discovery smoothly with other hardware, is this with regards to the physical form factor of the pins or the WaveForms software integration, or both?

Thanks,
JColvin
