A new chip aims to dramatically reduce energy consumption while accelerating the processing of large amounts of data.

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 ...

Scientists have achieved a breakthrough in analog computing, developing a programmable electronic circuit that harnesses the properties of high-frequency electromagnetic waves to perform complex ...

While most of computing in the world is still digital, the data around us is captured in analog via sensors–images through cameras, temperature, and sound, for example and has to be converted in a ...

As requested by readers, editor Andy Turudic demonstrates that it’s child’s play to set up an Analog Computer to compute a Lorenz Attractor. Anabrid’s THAT Analog Computer provides a flexible, ...

A computer that processes analog data is known as an analog computer. Analog computers store information in physical quantities in a continuous format and use measurements to perform computation.

The Catalyst Campus business park is home to Okika Devices, which recently moved their headquarters from California to Colorado Springs. Three months after Okika Devices moved its headquarters to ...

According to the accession file, the Ford Instrument Company built this device “to control motor speed on a time line.” It reportedly was used on early Mark VIII range keepers, built for the U.S. Navy ...
