As the saying goes, hindsight is 20/20. It may surprise you that the microchip that we all know and love today was far from an obvious idea. Some of the paths that were being explored back then to ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances discusses high performance integrated photonic-circuit-based on inverse design method. With the explosive growth of information and data, photonic ...

What Is A Hybrid Integrated Circuit? A hybrid integrated circuit (HIC) or a hybrid microcircuit, is a miniaturised electronic circuit that combines different electronic components on a single platform ...

I had met Professor Franco when I attended, for the first time, the Analog Aficionados dinner which Jim Williams had as an annual event in California. I was immediately drawn to him as I saw him ...

Editor’s note: I am so happy that there are still companies around that create precision, discrete transistors in our industry; Linear Integrated Systems is one of the best I have encountered. There ...

Flexible hybrid electronic (FHE) promises to combine the functionality of conventional rigid electronics with the flexibility of printed electronics. A prototypical FHE circuit, in which an integrated ...

Power is an important aspect of any design, but distributing it safely and efficiently throughout your circuit boards and subassemblies can be challenging. To distribute voltage to the power-supply ...

You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...
