Our June 2006 cover story, “The world is still analog,” described how engineers at Analog Devices use evaluation boards to characterize high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). To learn more ...

Modern printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) are designed to support increasingly complex applications in industries such as telecommunications, automotive, consumer electronics, and industrial ...

While doing some cleaning through boxes of old components, I came across a ten-turn potentiometer from a previous life (see Photo 1). These pots were a common component of precision test and ...

This component has an aluminum frame and three gears on top. It appears to have two similar mechanisms on the inside – each includes a shaft, a screw with linkages, and a cylinder turned by rotating a ...

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 ...

Analog components are the driving force behind digital devices, which rely on sensors, capacitors, and other building blocks to function efficiently and accurately. In this roundup, we look at some of ...

Digital circuit design is largely automated today, but most analog components still are designed manually. This may change soon. As analog design grows increasingly complex and error-prone, design ...

In previous installments of the AudioFile, we've talked about basic PCM audio, which encodes audio into a series of numbers that a computer can play or manipulate. We've also discussed the process of ...

This object has a metal plate box construction, allen cap screws, and metal gears and ball bearings. It appears to be a two unit component integrator . A tag on the bottom reads: BUR. ORD. ASSEMBLY ...
