The Digilent Digital Discovery™ is a combined logic analyzer and pattern generator instrument for the
embedded debug. Makers, hobbyists, engineers and designers can use Digital Discovery™ to debug, visualize, and simulate
digital signals for embedded projects. Connect Digital Discovery™ (Mac, Linux, or Windows) over high-speed USB.
It comes with Free application software Waveforms 2015.
