Mixed Signal/Analog

Analog Devices introduce the AD9106 quad-channel, 12-bit, and the AD9102 single-channel, 14-bit, 180-MSPS waveform generators, integrating on-chip static random access memory and direct digital synthesis for complex waveform generation. ADI’s new D/A converters generate the high-speed, high-dynamic-range, multichannel complex waveforms required in applications such as ultrasound transducer excitation, medical instrumentation, portable instr...

Nuvoton today introduced the NAU82039, a family of new Class-D audio amplifiers designed to optimize portable consumer devices. The new Nuvoton NAU82039 features high-efficiency mono, analog-input 3.2W Class-D power amplifier with 12dB of fixed gain – ideal for mobile consumer electronics such as smart phones, tablet PC, docking stations, portable audio and video players, GPS/Navigators, LCD and LED TVs, and toys.

Texas Instruments today introduced two analog front ends that provide low power, high performance and space savings for test and measurement, wireless communications and optical networking equipment. The AFE7071 is a complete radio transmitter that reduces board space by up to 80 percent compared to discrete implementations. It integrates a dual digital-to-analog converter, tunable baseband filters, IQ modulator and digital quadrature modulation ...

Analog Devices has today announced the introduction of a new multiplexed 24-bit sigma-delta A/D converter that doubles the throughput rate of alternative sigma-delta converters while dissipating less power. Designed for process automation and instrumentation systems where data channel density is increasing and channels must be monitored faster, ADI’s new AD7176-2 A/D converter achieves a 50-kSPS (thousand samples per second) multi-channel s...

Texas Instruments expanded its award-winning ADS1298 analog-front-end family today with the industry's most power-efficient 24-bit, 3-channel AFE for biopotential measurement applications, such as portable, battery-powered electrocardiogram solutions, Holter monitors and wireless patient monitoring equipment.

Analog Devices today introduced a highly integrated digital X-ray analog front end with the industry’s lowest noise performance in multiple power-mode options, and the highest image quality. The 256-channel ADAS1256 digital X-ray AFE is the industry’s first single-chip solution to integrate the complete charge-to-digital conversion signal chain by incorporating low-noise programmable-charge amplifiers, correlated double-sampling circu...

TDK Corporation presents the new EPCOS C914 MEMS microphone. It offers a particularly high signal-to-noise ratio of 65 dB(A) in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. It is thus particularly suitable for demanding audio applications in smartphones.

TDK Corporation presents the two new EPCOS C920 and C923 MEMS microphones. With footprints of only 2.75 x 1.85 mm² each and an insertion height of 0.9 mm, they are among the smallest top-port microphones worldwide.

Maxim have today unveiled a highly integrated data converter that integrates all the external circuitry to make a high-precision voltage source for industrial test and measurement, factory automation, and process control. The new MAX5318 is a high-accuracy 18-bit Digital-to-Analog Converter and is available now.

STMicroelectronics today added the STDP43 series of products to its innovative DisplayPort portfolio. These Systems-on-Chips are the world’s first high-speed active-protocol bi-directional media-routing devices that manage audio and video data from various sources and send this data to multiple displays.
