      Analog Devices' Engineering University--Why YOU Should Attend

      ADI’s Engineering University program provides an excellent resource for learning about analog circuitry. The textbook, video lectures, and labs teach analog theory to a high standard, seeding student curiosity; the virtual classroom facilitates international communication, question posing, and remote assistance; and the hardware design platforms inspire students to innovate.

      HDMI Made Easy: HDMI-to-VGA and VGA-to-HDMI Converters

      The consumer market has adopted High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology in TVs, projectors, and other multimedia devices. This article shows how advanced silicon solutions and smartly implemented software can facilitate HDMI-to-VGA and VGA-to-HDMI converters, which provide engineers familiar with video applications with easy transitions between analog video and digital video.

      The Successful Implementation of High-Performance Digital Radio

      Broadcast radio is becoming increasingly digital, providing listeners with clearer reception, larger coverage area, higher quality sound, additional content, and increased flexibility in accessing and listening to program material. Using the same bandwidth as analog radio, these improvements could be delivered only by digitizing the content, compressing it, and then broadcasting it digitally.

      Modeling Amplifiers as Analog Filters Increases SPICE Simulation Speed

      Simulation models for amplifiers are typically implemented with resistors, capacitors, transistors, diodes, dependent and independent sources, and other components—or as s-domain transfer functions. This article presents a method that models amplifiers as second-order analog filters, providing much faster time-domain simulations, especially for higher bandwidth amplifiers.

      Convert a Buck Regulator into a Smart LED Driver, Including Dimming

      With their long life and low energy consumption, LEDs promise to change the lighting industry, but a key limiter to rapid adoption is the cost of the LEDs themselves. In well-designed systems, LEDs can reliably produce many more lumens per dollar of product cost, so to reduce the total luminaire cost we can drive the LEDs at a much higher current than that at which the device is specified.

      Understand How Amplifier Noise Contributes to Total Noise in ADC Signal Chains

      ADCs provide optimal performance when the analog inputs are driven to the rated full-scale input voltage, but the maximum available signal often differs from the specified voltage and may need to be adjusted. A useful device for handling this requirement is a variable-gain amplifier (VGA). Understanding how the VGA affects the ADC’s performance will help in optimizing performance of the entire signal chain.

      Analog Devices’ Engineering University—Why YOU Should Attend

      By Ryan Fletcher and Scott Wayne

      Introduction

      Throughout its history, Analog Devices has always been committed to education, as exemplified by its highly trained applications engineers, online EngineerZone community, and extensive portfolio of textbooks, circuit notes, and magazine articles. Unfortunately, in this age of digital everything, many university students feel that digital electronics seem modern and exciting, while analog electronics appear boring and outmoded. Worse yet, many university curriculums have modeled the interests of their students, boosting their offerings in digital technology, while deemphasizing analog design skills.

      The world, however, is analog. Light, sound, temperature, pressure, and acceleration are all analog quantities, so analog sensors, signal conditioning, and data converters will always be required. In addition, although broadcast communications are progressively heading into the digital domain, their RF signals require analog receivers, transmitters, and low-noise amplifiers. Furthermore, as energy efficiency and a green Earth become increasingly important, analog power-management techniques are needed more than ever.

      Rather than fading out, analog technology is flourishing. In fact, more analog circuitry is found in a state-of-the-art high-definition TV than in a traditional analog TV; cardiac monitoring uses precision analog signal processing to detect small signals buried in noise; modern cell phones require analog power-management circuitry to prolong battery life; automobiles use microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) accelerometers and gyroscopes in electronic stabilization systems; and satellite communications use RF transmitters to broadcast digital signals in an analog realm.
