De presentaties van het vak ECS staan nu online. De presentaties zijn te vinden onderaan op de pagina’s die ook de lesvragen bevatten, zoals bijvoorbeeld hier.

DSP Demos updated
All demos were updated and can be used in the practical work assignements as a reference.

THe IIR Filter Demo was updated with regards to the available inputs. Non-recursive and convolutional computations are now possible.

All demos are available in a number of languages – the Dutch language variants were shown above.
DSPESE information updated
The information for taking and successfully completing the Digital Signal Processing (DSPESE) course has been updated for the 2020-2021 school year.
The login details for downloading the documents can be found on Education Online. All other information can be found on this site.
The theory lessons for this course will be provided online through the usual HAN channels for a period of seven weeks.
The practicals, on the other hand, will be performed at school in room B129 / B133.
DSD information updated
The information for taking and successfully completing the Digital Systems Design (DSD) course has been updated for the 2020-2021 school year.
The login details for downloading the documents can be found on Education Online. All other information can be found on this site.
The theory lessons for this course will be provided online through the usual HAN channels for a period of seven weeks.
The practicals, on the other hand, will be performed at school in room B129 / B133.
ECS example exam is now available in a bilingual version
THe ECS example exam is now bilingual (Dutch/English) and can be found here :

DSPESE software demonstrations download link fixed
For the DSPESEL practicum I recently announced a new software release. Unfortunaltely the download manager had a malfunction. I corrected the errors. The software can be downloaded from here:
DSB opdrachten/assignments demos
DSPESE example exams have been updated.
In response to today’s student questions, I have updated the sample exams and the formula sheet.
DSPESE voorbeeldtoetsen / example exams
DSDL Softcore assignment amended
The DSD softcore assignment has been amended because I cannot support working on the assignment in the usual sense.
The new assignment can be seen below.
DSPESE software demonstrations have been extended
For the DSPESE practicum, I have added an IIR Filter demonstrator to aid in undertstanding the book examples and training exercises.
The IIR filter designer is based on the algorithms in Lynn & Fürst’s book. It can do the following things:
- Compute the time-domain impulse response and frequency domain transfer function for a fully recursive difference equation based on the convolution principle for an LTI processor.
- Compute the time-domain impulse response and frequency domain transfer function for a z-domain specified list of zeros and poles.
- Compute the time-domain impulse response and frequency domain transfer function for a analog turned digital filter based on the Butterworth algoritm. Chebyshev support will be introduced in a later version.
The IIR Filter designer shares the evaluation method with the FIR Filter Designer tool that the students are familiar with in assignment 4. It can generate these testing signals as a stimulus for the filter:
- An impulse signal
- A step signal
- A square wave
- A cosine signal
The filter output can be observed in the test window.
The tool is multilingual and can be used in :
- Dutch
- German
- English
- Chinese (有中文)
- Vietnamese
- Indonesia (Bahasa Indonesia)


The IIR demonstrator (together with the other demo apps) can be downloaded here :

DSD practicum adapted to school situation 2020
The DSD softcore assignment has been extended because the DSD written exam was cancelled for this school year.
The new lab documentation can be downloaded here.
