PSLab is an Open Source Platform For STEM Education
I remember many years ago, when I was trying to acquire data with hardware especially with "Data Acquisition" devices, I was gifted a device that I must say reshaped my life - It was the NI myDAQ. The NI myDAQ was a product from National Instrument, and it allowed students to perform...

PIC18 Q10 Product Family – PIC® MCUs for Closed-loop Control
Real-time control systems usually are closed-loop control systems where one has a tight time window to gather data, process that data, and update the system. If the time window is missed, then the stability of the system is degraded. This reduced control can be catastrophic to some...
