NI Digital Waveform Editor

Create, Edit, and Import Digital Test Vectors

Configure Page for: Print PDF Rich Text
  • Design digital vectors with six drive and compare states (0, 1, Z, H, L, and X)
  • Import test vectors from VCD or ASCII files from VHDL design simulation packages
  • Use built-in fill patterns for count up, count down, pseudorandom bit sequences (PRBS), and more
  • Create buses, add bookmarks, and measure timing with cursors
  • Play waveform designs when combined with NI 654x, NI 655x, or NI 656x digital devices
  • Highlight bit errors in waveform designs when combined with an NI 655x using hardware compare


The NI Digital Waveform Editor is a graphical software tool you can use to visualize digital signals and easily create, edit, and modify digital waveforms for customized interfacing and test applications. You can design digital waveforms from scratch or import existing waveforms from Value Change Dump (.VCD) or ASCII file formats. The waveform editor offers six different digital states so you can define waveforms on a per-channel, per-cycle basis for generation (0, 1, or Z) and acquisition (L, H, or X) of unidirectional and bidirectional parallel data lines. You can also fill digital signals or buses with count up, count down, pseudorandom bit sequences, and other well-known patterns.

With the Digital Waveform Editor Version 3.0, you now have an option to “play” waveforms directly by clicking a run button. Combine the waveform editor with NI 654x, NI 655x, or NI 656x high-speed digital devices to generate or acquire waveforms quickly with literally no programming for common logic levels including 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, 5 V, and LVDS. An NI 655x is particularly powerful because of its ability to highlight bit errors in the editor in real time, so you can see errors in your design or measure timing restrictions between signals using cursors.

Extended Warranties

National Instruments designs and manufactures all products to minimize failures, however unexpected failures can still occur. Extended warranties provide a fixed economical price at the time of system purchase, covering any repair costs for up to three years. In addition, they offer the following benefits:

  • Significant cost savings compared to individual repair incidents
  • Fault location, diagnostics, and repair by NI any time the system product fails
  • All parts and labor costs covered as well as any adjustments needed to restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications

For more information about your warranty options:

Calibration

NI recognizes the need to maintain properly calibrated devices for high-accuracy measurements. NI provides manual calibration procedures, services to recalibrate your products, and automated calibration software to calibrate many NI measurement products.

Training

NI training is the fastest, most certain route to productivity with NI tools and successful application development.

Repair Services

Return your registered product under warranty at no additional labor and parts cost. NI offers fault location, diagnostics, and repair any time the system fails as well as any adjustments needed to restore the hardware to manufacturing specifications.
