Forward-looking: Microsoft is working on a novel, future-proof computer design that could sidestep Moore's law. The system, known as Analog Iterative Machine (AIM), is an analog optical machine that ...

A computer that processes analog data is known as an analog computer. Analog computers store information in physical quantities in a continuous format and use measurements to perform computation.

Our new tech editor for Analog looks at the evolution of “analog” and how it inadvertently spun off a pop music genre. Operational Amplifiers are exactly that—amplifiers that can perform mathematical ...

In the first of three parts, Andy hypothesizes that the K2-W Analog Computer Op Amp’s design has some unrevealed mad science in its input-stage design. 1. K2-W Op Amp schematic from Bob Pease’s ...

An exemplar photograph of an integrated chip containing memristor crossbar arrays of various sizes made at UMass Amherst. (Image taken by Can Li). AMHERST, Mass. – A team of researchers including ...

Back in September this year, I wrote a blog on analog computing for AI applications. This followed from ongoing efforts by a few organizations to use analog computing hardware and systems in a ...
