How to decide between buffered and un-buffered (switched capacitor), high-speed analog-to-digital converters, with an example of anti-aliasing filter design. The fundamental end goal when using an ADC ...

All modern high speed ADCs need an input common mode voltage for their differential inputs that must fall within some acceptable range for correct operation. This is sometimes a trivial issue where ...

Puff and Suck (or Sip and Puff) systems allow people with little to no arm mobility to more easily interact with computers by using a straw-like unit as an input device. [Ana] tells us that the usual ...

To test products in my R&D lab, I build many universal data-acquisition systems that connect to a PC or another controller through RS-232 links or LANs. These small systems typically include multiple ...

After finally incorporating a proper pair of speakers into my evolving MacBook Pro setup in late 2024 — following years of writing Cult of Mac setups articles, often with a focus on high-quality audio ...

[MakinStuff] wrote in to let us know about a project he did for new and improved interfacing to the ubiquitous cheap Chinese digital calipers. Interfacing to this common caliper model is well-trod ...
