What differentiates a mixed-signal printed circuit board design from a purely analog board or a purely digital system? What differentiates a mixed-signal printed circuit board design from a purely ...

In the analog/mixed-signal (AMS) arena, automated design of advanced ICs has long remained an objective rather than a reality. For the AMS design expert, automated tools have too often seemed to ...

What does the future of analog mixed-signal design and verification look like? Can we expect to see any methodology changes? There is no such thing as a purely digital design at advanced nodes today.

This article explores key mixed-signal applications, highlighting the difference between signal-path faults and rail-driven ...

Rapid digitization in IoT, automotive, industrial, and communication industry segments are fueling semiconductor industry growth. This growth follows the “More than Moore” paradigm, where new design ...

Microchip has created a four-channel thermocouple measurement IC with ±1.5°C accuracy. “MCP9604 delivers accuracy at four thermocouple locations by using higher-order NIST ITS-90 equations rather than ...

Separating the power/ground connections used for the analog sections from those used for the digital areas will improve the isolation of the power supplies. Adding external/internal filtering should ...

Living cells implement complex computations on the continuous environmental signals that they encounter. These computations involve both analogue- and digital-like processing of signals to give rise ...
