Energy-efficient successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent a rapidly evolving field in microelectronics, where substantial progress has been made in ...

Editor's note: We will publish this article in four sequential parts leading up to our “Ask the experts” session on Precision Voltage References on May 21. Alan Walsh will be one of our experts. The ...

When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...

[Igor] made a VU meter with LEDs using 8 LEDs and 8 comparators. This is a fast way to get one of 8 bits to indicate an input voltage, but that’s only the equivalent of a 3-bit analog to digital ...

This paper proposes a path-based algorithm for solving the well-known logit-based stochastic user equilibrium (SUE) problem in transportation planning and management. Based on the gradient projection ...

Kövari and Pommerenke [19], and Elliott [8], have shown that the truncated Faber series gives a polynomial approximation which (for practical values of the degree of the polynomial) is very close to ...

Archimedes' method finds an approximation of pi by determining the length of the perimeter of a polygon inscribed within a circle (which is less than the circumference of the circle) and the perimeter ...

THOSE who heard Prof. Southwell's lecture to the London Mathematical Society in 1937 will well remember how he communicated to his audience some of the great enthusiasm with which he had reacted to ...
