Our new tech editor for Analog looks at the evolution of “analog” and how it inadvertently spun off a pop music genre. Operational Amplifiers are exactly that—amplifiers that can perform mathematical ...
We are now more than a decade intothe 21st century, and on an ever-acceleratingfast track to technologicalinnovation in electronics.The transistor and progression intothe IC, or microchip, lit the ...
Analogue Computing hits the road as editor Andy Turudic uses THe Analog Thing Analog Laptop Computer to simulate an automobile suspension encountering a pothole. Some of you may have already ...
I had met Professor Franco when I attended, for the first time, the Analog Aficionados dinner which Jim Williams had as an annual event in California. I was immediately drawn to him as I saw him ...
Tool developers have been working to keep pace with these requirements. For example, Synopsys has delivered faster circuit simulation performance every year, with improvements in both single core ...
AI-driven design solution enables circuit optimization, saving weeks of manual and iterative effort while increasing design quality. Interoperable process design kits for all advanced TSMC FinFET ...
Digital circuit design is largely automated today, but most analog components still are designed manually. This may change soon. As analog design grows increasingly complex and error-prone, design ...
We often think of analog computing as a relic of the past, room-sized monstrosities filled with vacuum tubes doing their best to calculate Monte Carlo simulations or orbital velocities. Analog isn’t ...
Digital design is hard. But in the right environment, digital circuits are more forgiving than analog. That 3.3V signal coming out of the chip has to drop a lot along the way to not be a logic level ...
