🏆 WIN a STEMlab 125-14 Edu Pack! Tell us in the comments below why you want to win the Edu Pack and use the hashtag #RedPitaya. A winner will be selected on 14th January 2025.
We can all read the specs. We know what it can and can't do. For me, I have had this model for years it's a still very capable and useful piece of kit. It has a place on my bench now. To be able to bring this many bench tools, digital and analog, while being able to explore/learn each instrument, is invaluable for the price. The added blog coupled with programming resources all in a modular web format make Red Pitaya accessible with a level of maturity and development with a scale that few devices rise to. This is a tool many of us appreciate and need. Most devices are released with no future development. Red Pitaya is a great exception. #RedPitaya
It would be really great to compare it with Open Source/Open Hardware projects which are out there... Like ThunderScope. Which is a lot more capable. As the functionality goes you are largely relying on ngscopeclient anyway.
Nice video! Red Pitaya actually seems like it could become the de-facto oscilloscope out there due to that marketplace. It's sort of like the Raspberry Pi of oscilloscopes. I only know about it because of your video, so thank you.
I'm a studying photonics and Photonic Integrated circuits and we've been trying to work on a project to develop a Electro-optical VNA. The #RedPitaya would help me greatly moving forward with this project and overall with my education. It'd even be very useful as a hobbyist for electronics and SDR enthusiast!
#RedPitaya I graduated as an electronic technician a couple of years back, but due to complications caused by long covid and a genetic disease I have, I had to move from Iceland to Denmark to access a healthcare system that could cater to my needs. I had to leave most of my workshop behind and am basically stating from scratch and due to the costs of moving and the fact that I can't work, it goes slowly. To keep my mind healthy, I try to work on electronic projects, but the lack of tools has been hampering my process. I would love to get a #RedPitaya to be able to keep my knowledge sharp, learn to program FPGAs, prototype circuits and help me get back on my feet faster. Thank you for this very informative video and thanks #RedPitaya for this amazing product
Erm, the ZINQ7010 has both the FPGA fabric and ARM A9 CPUs on the one chip. The FPGA can be programmed to appear as devices within the ARM memory map (and the two can share SDRAM).
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
I´ve been thinking of gettin a #RedPitaya already for a while. I am developing an avalanche beacon (a transceiver to localize victims of avalanche, working close to the 500kHz) and I would use the #RedPitaya as the main RF frontend for both RX and TX. The RX side is a 3-channel coherent frontend so that, when connected to a 3D ferrite antenna, gives us the amplitudes (importantly: in phase, to get the relative signs) of the field in the X, Y and Z directions, hence obtaining the full magnetic vector. This we will use to make some calculations and determine the location of the victim, which lies under the snow! With the 125-14 I'd only have 2 channels, but I can prove all my concepts in 2D (Just X and Y antennas) and then synchronize with a second unit to obtain the 3rd channel.
I saw this thing drop 11 years ago, but couldn't afford it then. It's a bit frustrating to see the exact same hardware at the exact same price today. I think that boils down to several factors out of Pitaya's control, but it's still frustrating.
If you have been looking for some low-cost oscilloscope/Signal generator combo, this seems to be almost too good to be true for the posted price. I'd really like to add this to my workshop, even if I don't win it. Thank you for the awesome product #RedPitaya
This would only be able to measure from 0Hz to 50Mhz based on the specs. You are going to need to look for something else to measure in your needed range.
2.4GHz upwards is beyond most cheap dedicated scopes, never mind this thing. You need roughly 2 and a bit samples minimum per Hz you are sampling, so 6GHz would need a sample rate of over 12G samples/sec. There are ways of cheating and lowering your sample rate, but 125M samples/sec isn’t going to get even close.
Had no idea that it was an fpga. If I won it I'd use it as an sdr to scan the radios around me. I'd try the logic analyser software for the capabilities to decipher my electronics.
I’ve been learning electronics slowly to complement my study of programming first in C, and looking forward to branching or extending to C++ naturally. This video is pretty eye opening! The #RedPitaya is such a capable and useful device! I had no idea such a jack-of-all-trades existed, complete with all of the I/O ports, cpu sections and addons - the #RedPitaya sounds even more interesting than its name, and I hope to add one to my arsenal soon.
It would be very handy to have an oscillocsope, a signal generator, a signal analyzer and even more in a single small device for tinkering with microcontrollers and sensors, and also for electronics repairs which I'm learning as a hobby. #RedPitaya
Thank you for doing a video on #RedPitaya. Would never cross my mind to look for AIO kit... because I did not think that such a thing existed. Anyhow, I'm working on a Situational Awareness solution for Search and Rescue that, hopefully, can also be used in Ukraine. From what I've seen/read it seems like this would make field testing/troubleshooting much easier (and lighter) with so many instruments consolidated into one device. I wonder how else it could be used in my project - probably got to keep on watching/reading to get a grasp on RedPitaya's full potential.
I am currently in undergraduate studies and accepted in the graduate program for ECE and I work in a lab that designs RF solutions. I would love to be able to have a tool I can carry around to test my school projects, personal projects, and carry around the lab in the case I have a DUT with no available scopes! Thanks for the opportunity! #RedPitaya
As someone passionate about electronics and signal processing, getting the Pitaya would let me explore advanced RF apps and improve my debugging skills using the oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer. #RedPitaya
I'm increasing my spectrum of creativity on electronics, also involving different products such as raspberry and Arduino ones. I love keep learning and improving as an engineer and I have a lot of love on new tools and educational toolkits. I would love to have the opportunity to get in contact with this amazing product #RedPitaya
With the Red Pitaya, I could dive deeper into FPGA programming and embedded system debugging, making it an essential tool for both learning and practical projects. #RedPitaya
Please DO NOT ever use oscilloscope probes (the items referred to as "BNC") as outputs!!!!! They are designed to be inputs for each of the two oscilloscope channels and NOT as one for "scope" input and the other as waveform generator output!!!! Depending on the probe, you can damage the probe when using it as a signal source or output! You should use one oscilloscope probe cable connected to either oscilloscope channel and then the push-to-clip or needle-tip of the probe to contact the output of the waveform generator - you could just insert into the output connector or use SMA/BNC to flying leads to make a proper "scope to wave generator" connection... However you decide to connect things NEVER use a scope probe as a signal source!!!!!
indeed - and the bag with coloured rings is for identifying the scope probes - fit one at each end of the probe so you know which is which and don't get them mixed up. Ideally the probe colour would also match the colour of the trace on the display. And the little screwdriver is for calibrating the frequency response of the probe.
I would like to use it to generate high-fidelity analog signals (a mix of multiple frequency sine waves) to control a haptic device that I’m currently designing #RedPitaya
That FPGA is old and has become quite cheap. MYiR sells Z-turn Board from $120 which is very similar to the Red Pitaya albeit without the DAC/ADC. RP is a bit overpriced, sadly.
This is so cool. Has always been fascinated by electronics although studied software engineering later. I would like to build build oscilloscope, learn more about PID control, and RF transmission 😊 #RedPitaya 🎉
I am currently studying Electrical Engineering. I want to win the Edu Pack so I can use the Oscilloscope and Generator for electronic measurements/debugging, use the Logic Analyzer for Embedded debugging, use the DFT Spectrum/ VNA for Signal Processing & RF, learn Verilog/FPGA development, and learn the RedPitaya environment. #RedPitaya
one can easily go into the router and figure out the address of any device on the network.... from what you've shown nothing indicates that would not be possible. meaning the qr code is not that important. In fact, the documentation says as much.... and the last 6 char. before the .local, are the last 6 chars of the mac address. While not that important, attention to detail is one of the biggest things in tech work.... and saying something is important when it's not, well, it's just not a good look.
Yeah, it's a wonderful piece of kit, i guess... Especially for those just lesrning, cuz there's lots to learn! But, if I'm developing something, i don't want to have to also spend the time & effort (& frustration) of developing the tools that I'm using to develop my project! I don't want to learn how to program an FPGA, for instance. And, i don't want to have to write a bunch of code just to analyze the output of the project I'm actually developing! So...not for me. Give me a free standing O'scope & a signal generator any day. Then I'll get some work done.
I am teaching computer science at a high school. I am working on adding some programming of controllers to my classroom. I would like to show them what the signals look like on the classroom smart board as they control robots and what not. #RedPitaya
Just bought couple of sbRio boards, i would've definitely bought this had inknown about it. Edit: unfortunately the LabVIEW support is very limited, connection over SCPI, and one cannot use the LabVIEW's FPGA and/or Realtime module to work with onboard FPGA.
Man this is so cool, i was checking out the website and was looking at the diagnostic kit, and i noticed the ethernet only connection deal.. That is such a deal breaker man. Why couldn't they have a version with USB instead? Lets say i want to use this with a laptop portable.. man such a letdown.
As a recent graduate in IoT and Embedded Systems Engineering, owning a Red Pitaya STEMlab would be a dream come true for me. Unfortunately, I can’t afford such an amazing device, but it would be an incredible resource to deepen my knowledge and work on advanced projects. This opportunity could truly shape my career! #RedPitaya ❤🙏🙏❤❤🙏
A #RedPitaya would be an amazing device to have in our EE scientific student club (1,2,3 VIVA ISC 🗣🔥🔥) . Having such a versatile tool would allow anyone in our club to work easily on any advanced project, we are talking FPGA encryption accelerators, custom RF protocol, modulation and demodulation etc I just love when opportunities like these pop up that sponsor learners!
It would be very handy to have an oscillocsope, a signal generator, a signal analyzer and even more in a single small device for tinkering with microcontrollers and sensors, and also for electronics repairs which I'm learning as a hobby. #RedPitaya

Erm, the ZINQ7010 has both the FPGA fabric and ARM A9 CPUs on the one chip. The FPGA can be programmed to appear as devices within the ARM memory map (and the two can share SDRAM).
The #RedPitaya seems like the perfect candidate for the requirements i have when im working on my personal embeded projects

is FPGA logic\ verilog code open-source on Red Pitaya?
My dream to have one.. for an SDR (software designed radio) analyzer, for study of VLF frequencies and radio waves
I saw this thing drop 11 years ago, but couldn't afford it then. It's a bit frustrating to see the exact same hardware at the exact same price today. I think that boils down to several factors out of Pitaya's control, but it's still frustrating.

RED PITAYA! Yesss. I teach engineering and I would love to show case it to the students.. great stuff
Hmm what ranges can it catch? It seems like there is nothing written. I sort of want to measure VAN in 2.4Ghz to 6Ghz..
This would only be able to measure from 0Hz to 50Mhz based on the specs. You are going to need to look for something else to measure in your needed range.

Had no idea that it was an fpga. If I won it I'd use it as an sdr to scan the radios around me. I'd try the logic analyser software for the capabilities to decipher my electronics.
Wouldn't mind playing with one of these, especially the sdr.
The Red Pitaya seems really awesome. Learning to use one in practical situations would really help with understanding electronics better. #RedPitaya

These types of devices are extremely useful except that is quite expensive. A lot can be done with a cheap logic analyzer and an SDR.
Sweep mode produced all of the harmonics.

Incredible device. Would love to have one, otherwise I would buy one? Pricing also seems good.
Hi, i'm from algeria(Afriqua), i would like to have a red pitaya because i need it for my studies and my experimentations, thanks in advance.
Would love to get one into my hands to develop some verilog for it to debug my faulty hardware #RedPitaya
#RedPitaya I would like to leverage the test equipment features for use in my workshop

Electro optic VNA. Such a cool idea!
Thanks for letting me know! Won’t be doing that from now on 😂

Ideally the probe colour would also match the colour of the trace on the display. And the little screwdriver is for calibrating the frequency response of the probe.
A 1x probe actually works perfectly fine as a signal output, just make sure it’s actually in 1x mode
I would like to use it to generate high-fidelity analog signals (a mix of multiple frequency sine waves) to control a haptic device that I’m currently designing
#RedPitaya
İf there is a fpga it is where the money talks
Had no idea it was an fpga either. No wonder it was so expensive!
That FPGA is old and has become quite cheap. MYiR sells Z-turn Board from $120 which is very similar to the Red Pitaya albeit without the DAC/ADC. RP is a bit overpriced, sadly.
@@plemli the DAC it uses (AD9767)
is roughly 42USD so the DAC isn't cheap either. Very interesting about that fpga.
Red Pitaya is in the market many many years already (more than 10 year at least). Why making a video about it now? Besides, it is too expensive.
This is so cool. Has always been fascinated by electronics although studied software engineering later. I would like to build build oscilloscope, learn more about PID control, and RF transmission 😊 #RedPitaya 🎉
What is a FPGA?
And you release this video 2 days before christmas 😂 COME ON MAN

A bit to expensive for my taste 🤔
👍
$600+ for a devkit that you still need to learn to program to use? No decent case/enclosure included? No, thanks!
I haven’t much money to own logic analyzer and spectrum analyzer 😊 it could be my dream product #RedPitaya
I am teaching computer science at a high school. I am working on adding some programming of controllers to my classroom. I would like to show them what the signals look like on the classroom smart board as they control robots and what not. #RedPitaya

It would encourage me to get back to my EE roots after being in software for so long #RedPitaya
The #RedPitaya would be a great way to mentor the Grand Kids in their STEM education.
This vlog will give bananas a bad rep.
Man this is so cool, i was checking out the website and was looking at the diagnostic kit, and i noticed the ethernet only connection deal.. That is such a deal breaker man. Why couldn't they have a version with USB instead? Lets say i want to use this with a laptop portable.. man such a letdown.
Then you get a cheap usb to ethernet dongle?
I would love to have such complete and high quality device. As an engineer I see it as a must to have tool. #RedPitaya

redpitaya is botting the hell out of the comment section 🤣
#redpitaya
I really want to build an SDR and start developing a Radio receiver which includes a touch screen display and waterfall mode
"Even these engineers couldn't figure out"... Pan to woke library. ... Lol. The waffle reduces at 2:55 for those tempted to stick with it. 😂.
