A pulse-width modulator (PWM) is a common way of generating analog outputs from a digital component. A PWM replaces a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that generates analog voltage or current ...

This application note presents the analog output voltage in a system and how to accomplish the output with the use of an MLX90614 IR thermometer. The document also describes the MLX90614 PWM output in ...

This project uses the Arduino Uno PWM output to realize a fully isolated analog output with a range of 0..5 V or more. The use of an averaged PWM signal is not comparable with a real DAC, but it has ...

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

So I'm building a new HTPC. Currently mine doesn't have enough HP to do hi-def well enough for my tastes. Anyway, I find myself slot limited as in my mobo has SPDIF output but via a header which ...

A great many industrial sensors — flow, level, temperature, pressure, pH, and the list goes on — produce a 4-20 mA output, but today's factories increasingly need digital inputs via standard field ...

Our new tech editor for Analog looks at the evolution of “analog” and how it inadvertently spun off a pop music genre. Operational Amplifiers are exactly that—amplifiers that can perform mathematical ...

Our hacker [Moritz Klein] shows us how to make a minimalist analog drum machine. If you want the gory details check out the ...

TDK and Hokkaido University are to demonstrate real-time learning in a ‘reservoir’ analogue AI chip that mimics the cerebellum at CEATEC in Japan.
