The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

Find out how a digital technique performs multiplication on two bitstreams and avoids the cost of the analog multiplier.

Few IC-schematic symbols are simpler than the one that depicts an analog switch (Figure 1a). A basic switch comprises just an input, an output, a control pin, and a couple of power-supply pins. Yet, ...

For almost 20 years, researchers and semiconductormanufacturers have been trying to developa practical analog BIST (built-in self-test) formixed-signal ICs. By enabling mixed-signal ICtesting on ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Rob Reeder, Senior System Application Engineer, Analog Devices Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are used in a wide ...

Back in the day where the microprocessor was our standard building block, we tended to concentrate on computation and processing of data and not so much on I/O. Simply put there were a lot of things ...

If you’ve been on the RTL-SDR forums lately you may have seen that a lot of work has been going into the DragonOS software. This is a software-defined radio group that has seen a lot of effort put ...
