Instead of focusing on sensor readings at specific points, their magnetoreceptor captures electrical resistance information ...

Mechanical latching relays incorporate internal locks or gears that hold the relay contacts in place after switching. A ...

Here’s a nostalgic vibe of an awesome analog chip from the 1990s era that’s still making an impact in audio designs.

A software suite powering oscillators and clocks claims higher time synchronization accuracy than quartz-based solutions.

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

The 50-ohm impedance is standard in RF design, but 75 ohms is also used, so it’s important to understand the attributes of each.

Even measuring "simple" passive components such as capacitors is not trivial, if you need high-accuracy results. Learn how to match the technique and instrument to the situation to achieve reliable, ...

There is a lot of demand for the tiny speaker in smart glasses and smartwatches to be even smaller and lighter. However, the century-old micro-speakers built around a dynamic driver, coil, and ...

Here are tips for debugging stepper motor systems as well as general bench testing advice based on the personal experience of co-authors.

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

In operational amplifier stability, one rule of thumb is to allow 45 degrees of phase margin. Other design guidelines state that 60 degrees is best; still others say that 30 degrees is sufficient.

Learn about the tips and tricks for testing and debugging of motor driver ICs to accelerate the evaluation and prototyping of motor designs.
