Hardware interfaces that accept non-digital signals. For decades, all the plugs and sockets on traditional audio and video equipment connected analog lines. In addition, the common high-density DB-15 ...

Your design task, should you decide to accept it: given an input voltage, square it. Ok, that’s too hard since squaring 8 volts would give you 64 volts, so let’s say the output should be 10% of the ...

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 ...

Analog computers have been used extensively in the past, for things like tide calculations, but in the semiconductor era things have mostly gone digital. Even where you have analog elements, like DRAM ...

I was doing some reminiscing about my college days and comparing to what is being taught today. One of the things that I clearly see is that schools focus more on the digital side of electronic design ...

All analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have a certain amount ofinput-referred noise. In most cases,less input noise is better. There are some cases, however, where inputnoise can actually be helpful ...

Makers and computer enthusiasts interested in building their very own analogue computer, may be interested in a new modular analogue computer kit showcased by the grappendorf.net website this week.

Today's analog system designers face many design challenges. Not only do designers need to select the proper integrated-circuit components, but they also must accurately predict the interactions of ...

Touted as the world’s first TUV SIL 3 certified Hart failsafe analog input module, the Simatic SM 336 is available for use with Simatic ET 200M I/O and PCS 7F process safety systems. July 1, 2008 A 50 ...

The standard analog input for a PC monitor is the Video Graphics Array connection. As technology has developed, many PC monitors have been manufactured accommodate multiple input standards. While VGA ...
