SoftEye develops hardware- and software-based eye intent technology for smart glasses, connecting users to generative AI.

There is another analog compute-in-memory solution for math-heavy AI workloads, which is capacitor-based and achieves power ...

Some specialty vacuum tubes are alive and well, with their design and production enhanced by 3D printing techniques.

Here is how a fascination with analog and mixed-signal semiconductors led Tony Pialis to design innovations in SerDes architectures.

Planet Analog provides an online community for semiconductor and system designers/engineers interested in advancing analog design techniques.

In Part 1 of this series, we discussed the Wheatstone bridge topology, excitation and calibration methodologies, and basic signal-conditioning techniques using building blocks such as difference ...

Engineers often use SPICE simulations for operational amplifiers to look at the stability of a proposed circuit. SPICE simulations are particularly frequent for high-speed amplifier applications where ...

The first installment of this two-part series focused on debugging brushed-DC motor systems. Now the second installment will share some tips for stepper motor systems and provide general bench testing ...

Along with duct tape and nylon cable ties, heat shrink tubing is an essential element in the engineer’s toolkit as well as manufacturing, production, and repair. It’s used for covering and protecting ...

One of the goals for designers of new high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) is to relax the design requirements for the external input amplifier and reference, often by including ...

Our fundamental passive and inherently analog components—resistors, capacitors, and inductors—are so conceptually simple and easy to describe that we often don’t fully articulate or appreciate the ...
