Oscilloscopes provide critical signal visibility for debugging, testing, and ensuring that electronic systems match developers’ imaginations. Specifying when the oscilloscope captures information ...

Up to this point in this series, we have examined the operational amplifier (op amp) and its use in several applications. To emphasize the diversity of the entire signal chain, this article opens the ...

How analog signal engineering is performed, in broad strokes. What are the component-selection considerations for new designs? What are VFAs and how are they used? Analog signal engineers specialize ...

A digital signal processor is an IC or IP core designed to process signals digitally with efficiency. Analog signals are converted to digital via an analog-to-digital converter before being processed ...

We generally use our electronic gadgets without thinking, expecting them to understand our operating environment, read our commands correctly and store, retrieve and process the information we throw ...

Key differences in analog vs. digital features. Applications where each type of multimeter is best suited. Multimeters, from small handheld to more sophisticated benchtop models, are indispensable ...

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.

Analog Devices ADI and NXP Semiconductors NXPI are two of the largest semiconductor players in the analog signal processing space. Both Analog Devices and NXP Semiconductors develop analog chips for ...
