Some specialty vacuum tubes are alive and well, with their design and production enhanced by 3D printing techniques.

Planet Analog provides an online community for semiconductor and system designers/engineers interested in advancing analog design techniques.

The automotive industry is changing. The load that must be carried today by internal combustion engines (ICEs) will, in the future, be handled by hybrid, electric, or even fuel cell driven vehicles.

Engineers often use SPICE simulations for operational amplifiers to look at the stability of a proposed circuit. SPICE simulations are particularly frequent for high-speed amplifier applications where ...

Here is how a fascination with analog and mixed-signal semiconductors led Tony Pialis to design innovations in SerDes architectures.

If the car battery terminals are reverse connected during a jump start, vehicle upkeep, or repair, components in the associated automotive electronics modules may be damaged if they cannot handle the ...

Machine learning (ML), a subset of artificial intelligence (AI), has become integral to our lives. It allows us to learn and reason from data using techniques such as deep neural network algorithms.

There are many secondary functions associated with designing an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal chain, but one of the most important might be the most underrated: making sure that the electrodes are ...

The tips and tricks when testing motor-driver ICs on the lab bench can help engineers reduce time spent on evaluating and prototyping motor systems. The first installment of this two-part article ...

Sensors are getting smarter by integrating sensing technology with embedded microcontrollers, software, and artificial intelligence (AI) that runs inside the sensor itself. Here, software solutions ...

Ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensors come to rescue indoor sensors, which often fail to detect and avoid barriers like plexiglass walls, translucent doors, and glass windows. Here is how ToF ...
