(Nanowerk Spotlight) The pursuit of faster and more efficient computing has been a driving force in technological progress for decades. As the demand for computational power continues to grow, ...
Researchers at Cornell University have developed an electronic chip that they describe as a "microwave brain." The simplified chip is analog rather than digital, yet can process ultrafast data and ...
Anyone involved in IC product sign-off that includes a mixed signal design portion knows that developing robust tests for these intricate designs has historically been a significant bottleneck, no ...
Our new tech editor for Analog looks at the evolution of “analog” and how it inadvertently spun off a pop music genre. Operational Amplifiers are exactly that—amplifiers that can perform mathematical ...
Although computers are overwhelmingly digital today, there’s a good point to be made that analog computers are the more efficient approach for specific applications. The authors behind a recent paper ...
A rapid increase in wireless connectivity and more sensors, coupled with a shift away from monolithic SoCs toward heterogeneous integration, is driving up the amount of analog/RF content in systems ...
How does cold milk disperse when it is dripped into hot coffee? Even the fastest supercomputers are unable to perform the necessary calculations with high precision because the underlying quantum ...
Faithful simulations of the world are impossible to create using ordinary computers. Simulating physical reality is, however, the original, express purpose of quantum computers. In 1981, long before ...
What is an analog front-end (AFE)? Why use an AFE? AFE tradeoffs in energy-meter design. Sensors provide analog signals that need to be converted to digital values via analog-to-digital converters ...
