Various methods, from shielding to optimized PCB layout, can be applied to significantly reduce high levels of EMI in power supplies.

A “cheap as chips” open-source Analog Computer can run circles around a Raspberry Pi in solving differential equations and for simulating natural phenomena.

Analog designs are challenging, but artificial-intelligence optimizations are improving and speeding up the design process.

In Part 1, we explore the benefits of miniaturization and the five main challenges it introduces in PCB assembly.
