The revised version of the DIGITAL case provides an improved logic analyser with background illumination and a future-proof, upgradable quick-change system for the experiment boards. Thanks to the replaceable experiment boards, the system can be upgraded easily and inexpensively in event of further developments in semi-conductor technology.
In addition, the universal experiment boards can be used to carry out further tests with in-house semiconductors. In addition to the basic equipment of the cases, in future complementary sets with new experiment boards and test instructions will be introduced.
