What is hard about analyzing feedback circuits is the extraction from the circuit diagram of the simple block diagram found in active circuits and control textbooks. To start with a relatively easy ...

Current conveyor (CC) circuits are among the most common current-mode circuits and are used as critical building blocks in a variety of complex circuits. Unlike voltage-mode circuits, current-mode ...

Advances in digital electronic circuits have prompted the boost in functions and ever smaller size of such popular consumer goods as digital cameras. But the same cannot be said of the older analog ...

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 ...

Open-source tools and multi-project wafer (MPW) shuttles democratize chip design for low cost. Small circuits, both analog and digital, are accommodated by embedding them as “tiles” or “clusters” into ...

Robotics researchers, engineers and materials scientists showed it is possible to make programmable, nonelectronic circuits that control the actions of soft robots by processing information encoded in ...
