Analog To Digital Converter (ADC): A True Understanding

Back in the day where the microprocessor was our standard building block, we tended to concentrate on computation and processing of data and not so much on I/O. Simply put there were a lot of things ...

Even in a Digital World, Analog Multipliers are Still Relevant

The world is digital, but sometimes the power of analog is just what is needed. The analog multiplier is a case in point with its ability to deliver real-time results, especially with rapidly varying ...
