Digilent WaveForms Software Application

The Multifunctional Measuring Instrument on the Screen

Digilent WaveForms is the software application for the Discovery family - portable USB oscilloscopes, logic analyzers and signal generators.

• Together with the compatible hardware, the software forms powerful instruments for analog and digital design.
• With full support for Windows, MacOS and Linux (on almost all devices).
• WaveForms provides a clear, easy-to-use graphical interface and makes it easy to capture, visualize, store, analyze, produce and reuse analog and digital signals.
• The Digilent WaveForms SDK (Software Development Kit) is automatically downloaded with the software application and provides libraries and examples for writing your own applications in C, Python and other languages. Third-party toolkits are also available for NI LabVIEW and MATLAB (for most devices).
• Note: WaveForms can be downloaded and used free of charge and can also be used without hardware in demo mode.
