Researchers at RIT have improved the electronics used in communication and radar systems to better process signals using electromagnetic radio waves. This breakthrough could advance computing ...

Analog Devices (ADI) is a leading semiconductor chipmaker specializing in analog and mixed signal chips. The demand for analog chips is increasing as devices become more intelligent and require more ...

We live in an analog world, but analog has been minimized whenever possible. At some point digital and analog must come together in every electronic device, and that has long been an area where errors ...

You may have heard statements like, “Everything will be digital, and even signal processing is now performed in digital.” Or, “modern semiconductor designs will minimize analog content because you ...

Several years ago, analog and mixed signal (AMS) content hit a wall. Its contribution to first-time chip failure doubled, and there is no evidence that anything has improved dramatically since then.

Billions of smart devices rely on sensor data to gather intelligence. Most smart devices use a “digitize-first” model to digitize all sensor data immediately, sending data to high-power digital ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

In a digital world, why bother with analog? Well, sometimes it can still be the right solution. Take, for instance, the analog multiplier (see figure). At its simplest, it’s a circuit that leverages ...

A computer that processes analog data is known as an analog computer. Analog computers store information in physical quantities in a continuous format and use measurements to perform computation.
