Amateur radio

Amateur radio, also known as ham radio, is the use of the radio frequency spectrum for purposes of non-commercial exchange of messages, wireless experimentation, self-training, private recreation, radiosport, contesting, and emergency communications.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Amateur radio

Analog-to-digital converter

In electronics, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D) is a system that converts an analog signal, such as a sound picked up by a microphone or light entering a digital camera, into a digital signal.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Analog-to-digital converter

Arduino

Arduino is an Italian open-source hardware and software company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for building digital devices.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Arduino

ARM Cortex-A9

The ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore is a 32-bit multi-core processor that provides up to 4 cache-coherent cores, each implementing the ARM v7 architecture instruction set.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and ARM Cortex-A9

Digital-to-analog converter

In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Digital-to-analog converter

Ethernet

Ethernet is a family of wired computer networking technologies commonly used in local area networks (LAN), metropolitan area networks (MAN) and wide area networks (WAN).

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Ethernet

Field-programmable gate array

A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is a type of configurable integrated circuit that can be repeatedly programmed after manufacturing.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Field-programmable gate array

Hardware description language

In computer engineering, a hardware description language (HDL) is a specialized computer language used to describe the structure and behavior of electronic circuits, most commonly to design ASICs and program FPGAs.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Hardware description language

LCR meter

An LCR meter is a type of electronic test equipment used to measure the inductance (L), capacitance (C), and resistance (R) of an electronic component.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and LCR meter

Linux

Linux is both an open-source Unix-like kernel and a generic name for a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Linux

MIMO

In radio, multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) is a method for multiplying the capacity of a radio link using multiple transmission and receiving antennas to exploit multipath propagation.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and MIMO

Open-source hardware

Open-source hardware (OSH, OSHW) consists of physical artifacts of technology designed and offered by the open-design movement.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Open-source hardware

Oscilloscope

An oscilloscope (informally scope or O-scope) is a type of electronic test instrument that graphically displays varying voltages of one or more signals as a function of time.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Oscilloscope

Proportional–integral–derivative controller

A proportional–integral–derivative controller (PID controller or three-term controller) is a control loop mechanism employing feedback that is widely used in industrial control systems and a variety of other applications requiring continuously modulated control.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Proportional–integral–derivative controller

Radio frequency

Radio frequency (RF) is the oscillation rate of an alternating electric current or voltage or of a magnetic, electric or electromagnetic field or mechanical system in the frequency range from around to around.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Radio frequency

Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers (SBCs) developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in association with Broadcom. Red Pitaya (computer) and Raspberry Pi are ARM-based single-board computers, Educational hardware, Linux-based devices and single-board computers.

SD card

Secure Digital, officially abbreviated as SD, is a proprietary, non-volatile, flash memory card format the SD Association (SDA) developed for use in portable devices.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and SD card

Single-board computer

A single-board computer (SBC) is a complete computer built on a single circuit board, with microprocessor(s), memory, input/output (I/O) and other features required of a functional computer. Red Pitaya (computer) and single-board computer are single-board computers.

See Red Pitaya (computer) and Single-board computer

Software-defined radio

Software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio communication system where components that conventionally have been implemented in analog hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, amplifiers, modulators/demodulators, detectors, etc.) are instead implemented by means of software on a computer or embedded system.
