Red Pitaya – a low cost, open source test instrumentation and control platform launched last year through a successful Kickstarter campaign – is now available to order from RS Components.
The board packs an Xilinx Zynq SoC, oscilloscope, arbitrary waveform generator, PID controller and various other digital I/O functions.
