This application note tackles on how to protect analog output circuits and why they should be protected. As one of the necessary components in the system’s performance, analog output circuits should ...

A methodology to create efficient manufacturing mixed-signal tests that reduce both test costs and test escapes.

Designing, constructing, testing, and improving circuits—especially those with significant analog content—was always one of my interests. The fact that you could arrange standard active and passive ...

Foundries and packaging houses are wrestling how to control heat in the testing phase, particularly as devices continue to shrink and as thermally sensitive analog circuits are added into SoCs and ...

This technical FAQ examines three modeling gaps identified in engineering literature and outlines algorithmic methods to address them.

Analog circuit design optimisation is a critical field that integrates traditional electronic principles with modern computational techniques to refine circuit performance, minimise power consumption ...

Andy’s back from the 2026 Analog Aficionados meetup, held at DesignCon this year, and pieces together some history of the event as well as launching a downloadable annual ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The quest for power reduction in electronic circuits is one of the main drivers of circuit design innovation. Recently, ...

Using SPICE to simulate an electrical circuit is a common enough practice in engineering that “SPICEing a circuit” is a perfectly valid phrase in the lexicon. SPICE as a software tool has been around ...
