I have developed various serial applications in C, using a BCC compiler on a Windows XP machine. I used my laptop (Sony Vaio, Athalon 4 1.0GHz) and ran the apps from the command line. My laptop has a serial port, so I have not tried serial programming for USB yet, but I have found a good...
my undergrad DSP course used "Discrete-Time Signal Processing" by Oppenheim and Schafer. I chose to buy
"Computer-Based Exercises for Signal Processing Using MATLAB Ver.5" as an extra supplement text. Since the course relied heavily on the use of Matlab exercises to...
Radio Shack has small, inexpensive basic electronics books I used in high school. At the time, I felt they expressed the ideas and information for the non-engineer fairly well.
Otherwise, there is plenty of information on the web.
Hello,
I need to convert from a serial single-ended ECL signal to serial differential ECL. I'm using a SyntheSys BitAlyzer 1000. This unit has serial SECL I/O with SMA and BNC connectors. I need to interface to an Agilent Optical Transceiver which is expecting Differential inputs. So, I'm...
I have programmed multiple RS232 applications and would suggest using C. You can find example code and the appropriate usage in the Microsoft MSDN libraries. Specifically at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library
You will have to use the windows.h header.
You will have to use the CreateFile()...
There is an application called win2pdf available by download at www.downloads.com. The application works by "printing" to a pdf. I haven't tested it's capabilities extensively, but it works great with Office documents.
I like Pspice for circuit design and simulation and Eagle for PCB layout. Student versions of Pspice are freeware, and I believe Eagle has a freeware version with some limited capability.
