RF/IF Circuits (amplifiers [see above], mixers and modulators, frequency synthesisers, detectors and transceivers – this category also includes analog computation circuits [RMS-DC, multipliers, etc.] ...
Researchers at Cornell University have developed an electronic chip that they describe as a "microwave brain." The simplified ...
Using intelligent analog peripherals in an MCU as a way to handle signals that require some conditioning but aren’t particularly sensitive.
Generating interesting imagery on an analog oscilloscope is a fun activity enjoyed by many, with an excellent demonstration by [Henry Segerman] provided in a recent video which covers [Matthias ...
Furthermore, analog performance requirements, especially linearity and noise, often limit the ability to reduce the supply levels and demand the use of power-hungry high-gain circuits.
All circuits, analog or digital, have characteristics dependent on the values of their component parts. Invariably, these parts are non-ideal in many ways. Even their most fundamental characteristics, ...
A simple op amp clipping circuit can limit input-voltage excursions into an ADC, thus preventing input overload and possible damage to the converter.
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 numb… ...
The difference between digital and analog signals may seem straightforward, but there is a ton of nuance that defines the characteristics of the two systems.
Likewise, the ADC circuit turns analog signals (like the one from the microphone built into your headphones ) into something the Lightning port can interpret.
