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.

We have always had programmable analog circuits. Any circuit that makes outputs change as a function of inputs is in some way programmable. Examples include gain change as a function of voltage or ...

For much of my career, I have been drawn to complex systems. The kind of work that sits beneath the surface but keeps everything else moving. Think supply chains, logistics and the operational ...

In a world of digital tools, sometimes an Analog system is the best way to stay organized. I’ve tried out a lot of different productivity tools. I’ve used all the apps, tried all of the systems, and ...

Why do we have so many analog ports, and do we need them? This question continues to come up repeatedly in our conversations with clients. Analog telephones use standard copper wire, connect to plain ...

How analog signal engineering is performed, in broad strokes. What are the component-selection considerations for new designs? What are VFAs and how are they used? Analog signal engineers specialize ...

In this nearly all-digital age, analog systems are a vanishing breed. Certain cars still have analog dashboards. A lot of people prefer analog clock faces to something that looks like the timer on a ...

A new wave of startups is rising to meet the growing need for specialized analog customization in chip design projects, opening the door to more affordable custom designs. These startups are breathing ...

I admit the title “analog debugging” is a bit enigmatic. After reading it, an embedded firmware developer may suffer from cognitive dissonance, but trust me, it will make sense later. What the title ...
