The evolution in CMOS technology dictated by Moore's Law is clearly beneficial for designers of digital circuits, but it presents difficult challenges, such as lowered nominal supply voltages, for ...

In this section we will discuss some fundamental digital building blocks for power management. We will quickly review the main properties of the elementary components, the logic gates, so that we can ...

In the early '90s, many pessimists predicted that CMOS would hit a wall as it approached 100-nm and lower gate lengths toward the end of the century. But CMOS processes steadily marched forward, ...

The end of an earnings season can be a great time to discover new stocks and assess how companies are handling the current ...

Analog circuits, despite constituting a small proportion of overall electronic systems, account for a substantial share of system failures. Consequently, the development of robust fault diagnosis ...

FREMONT, Calif., March 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Linear Systems, a leader in monolithic dual JFETs and small-signal discrete semiconductor manufacturing, announces the release of JFET Circuit Design: A ...

We live in an analog world dominated by digital processing, but that could change. Domain specificity, and the desire for greater levels of optimization, may provide analog compute with some ...

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 ...

Generating interesting imagery on an analog oscilloscope is a fun activity enjoyed by many, with an excellent demonstration by [Henry Segerman] provided in a recent video which covers [Matthias ...

Using SPICE to simulate an electrical circuit is a common enough practice in engineering that “SPICEing a circuit” is a perfectly valid phrase in the lexicon. SPICE as a software tool has been around ...
