MUNICH, Germany — Analog/Mixed Signal chip manufacturer ZMD (Dresden, Germany) sees a strong trend to equip analog sensors with built-in digital intelligence. This strategy helps the company to tap ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

An example is the sensing of a rotary cam position. The oblong shape of the cam dictates use of a sensor able to detect different shapes and sizes. A simple prox sensor merely detects the presence or ...

What is elastic-wave touch-sensing technology and how easily can it be applied? Key markets benefiting from the technology, such as automotive, computing, and wearables. “Elastic wave” is based on the ...

A while back, [Chris Lu] was studying how analog circuits, specifically op-amps can be used to perform mathematical operations and wondered if they could be persuaded to solve differential equations, ...

There is a growing trend toward electrification of virtually all systems that can be electrified, and that inevitably calls for generating actionable intelligence of these systems. To achieve the ...

UC San Diego has developed a system that uses analog sensors with a direct interface to RFID tags, making them passive sensor devices. The solution includes analog to digital conversion without ...

The analog/mixed signal semiconductor market as a whole should continue to grow this year, following a very strong 2024. Macro and geopolitical developments, particularly with respect to China -- ...
