The tutorial has got you covered for more esoteric use cases.Ĭlearly, some good thought has been put into the waveform description language, WaveJSON it’s mostly readable and makes the essentials quick and easy. We found it intuitive enough that we could make simple diagrams without even reading the fine manual. Wavedrom nails four out of these five at the moment, and has promise to cover all of the bases. Output modifiable when absolutely necessary: SVG would be niceīasically, what we want is graphviz for timing diagrams.Simple to use for common cases, but flexible enough to do some strange stuff when needed.Command-line rendering of images, because we like to automate everything.Diagrams have a text-based representation, so their generation can be easily scripted and the results versioned and tracked throughout project development.Just so you know where we’re coming from, here’s our list of desiderata for a timing diagram drawing solution: None of these are ideal.Īn afternoon’s search for a better tool ended up with Wavedrom. For us, that’s meant keeping (text) notes, drawing something on a napkin, or using a tool like Inkscape. When working with anything digital, you’re going to end up reading or writing a timing diagram before long.
#Timing diagram online software
Posted in Microcontrollers, Software Hacks Tagged ascii art, json, timing diagram, verilog, wavedrom So if you’ve found WaveDrom useful, but wish you could generate ASCII versions, here’s your solution. It reads the exact same format that WaveDrom uses, but generates an ASCII-art timing diagram instead. It accepts timing diagrams expressed as JSON data, and renders nicely-readable digital timing diagrams as images directly inside one’s browser.Īs cool and useful as that is, images can’t be pasted into text fields. WaveDrom itself is a nifty JavaScript tool that we have covered before. Unlike images, ASCII timing diagrams are suitable for pasting into comment fields, change logs, or anywhere else that accepts text only. That’s what led to create asciiwave, a fantastic tool that turns WaveDrom timing diagrams into ASCII art. We all use text-based fields at one time or another, and being limited to ASCII only can end up being a limitation.
