When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...

It is no secret that analog engineers have struggled with complexity when designing power supplies that require multiple outputs, coordinated load sharing, hot-swap capability, or extensive fault ...

In previous installments of the AudioFile, we’ve talked about basic PCM audio, which encodes audio into a series of numbers that a computer can play or manipulate. We’ve also discussed the process of ...

Did You Know? The “real” world we are living in is Analog! Whether it is sound, light, temperature or humidity, all are continuously varying things. However, when we want to communicate with the ...

Photonic analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) represents a paradigm shift in signal processing by leveraging the inherent advantages of photonic devices to digitise analog signals. The approach aims to ...

Leuven, Belgium and Eindhoven, the Netherlands: At the International Solid State Circuit Conference, Imec and the Holst Centre demonstrated an ultra-low power 8 bit analog to digital convertor (ADC) ...

Imec has introduced a 7-bit, 175GS/s massively time-interleaved slope-ADC, implemented in 5 nm FinFET technology. The device combines a record-small core area ...

If you want to watch your analog television and record on your analog VCR at the same time, you will need a converter box for each device, according to the Federal Communications Commission Web site ...
