At one time the boundaries between analog and digital designs were clearly defined. As the complexity and performance levels of systems have increased, maintaining those boundaries has become more ...

Analog signal generators are an essential test instrument that help verify the performance of devices and systems. This primer provides an overview of analog signal generators including key ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

The world of analog components is broad and diverse, and while testing analog chips may not take as long as running tests on complex SoCs, there are different requirements for analog devices. One type ...

With integration encompassing not just the logic for a communications chip but also the physical-layer (PHY) analog components, a lot of things get more complicated. It's easy to anticipate the design ...

Siemens Digital Industries Software today introduced Tessent™ AnalogTest software - an innovative solution that reduces pattern generation time for analog circuit tests from months to days. The ...

Due to efficiency, quality, and cost, digital communications systems play a major role in telecommunications, especially wireless services. With most digital modulation schemes represented as in-phase ...

Advanced chip design is becoming a great equalizer for analog and digital at each new node. Analog IP has more digital circuitry, and digital designs are more susceptible to kinds of noise and signal ...
