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 ...

Many power ICs use frequency jitter, which spreads a control signal's spectrum, to control EMI (electromagnetic interference). If you need to add frequency jitter to power ICs that control three-phase ...

Clocks are the heartbeats of embedded systems, providing timing references and synchronization between components, subsystems, and entire systems. Incorrect clock signal amplitudes and timing can ...

In the circuit in Figure 1, the comparator's output will go high if input B is greater than input A. It will fall when input B is less than input A. If the comparator and input signal sources are ...

At OFC 2026 (Booth #5617, West Hall), Mixed-Signal Devices will demonstrate its latest multi-gigahertz oscillator and multi-output clock-generation solutions designed to meet the timing requirements ...

Whether you are sitting at a computer, working on a tablet, talking or surfing on a cell phone, sending data over a network, performing digital signal analysis, or controlling an industrial robot, ...

A while back we saw a logic clock that used the alternating current frequency from the power grid to keep time. We asked for information on your projects that use this method and we got a lot of ...

This circuit transforms a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal into non-overlapping clock signals, whose number depends on the length of a shift register. These clock signals can be used to power up ...

Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) circuits form a critical component in modern digital communication systems, where the accurate extraction of timing information from data streams is paramount. These ...

Timing relationships between signals are critical to reliable operation of digital designs. With synchronous designs, the timing of the clock signal relative to data signals is especially important.
