Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss what’s changing in analog design with the shift toward heterogeneous integration and more safety- and mission-critical applications with Mo Faisal, ...

What is analog computing and how is it used? What is digital computing and how is it used? Why both methods provide promising results, depending on the application. The unveiling of intelligent ...

As is known, a multiplexer and a demultiplexer is an electronic device designed for selective signal transmission from one of several inputs to one output, or, on the contrary, signal transmission ...

This article explores key mixed-signal applications, highlighting the difference between signal-path faults and rail-driven ...

The rapid evolution of electronic system design has underscored the importance of Field Programmable Analog Arrays (FPAAs) and mixed‐signal systems in achieving flexible, energy‐efficient processing.

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 ...

Ali Miri details how electromagnetic waves can improve computing matrix operations for advanced computing systems.

A newly drafted IEEE standard will bring more consistency to defect metrics in analog/mixed (AMS) designs, a long-overdue step that has become too difficult to ignore in the costly heterogeneous ...

It’s based on a paper by Alan Jurison, who chairs the IBOC Standards Development Working Group of the National Radio Systems Committee; Jeff Baird, principal engineer at Xperi; and Mike Raide, senior ...
