ANALOG DEVICES’ TECHNICAL WEBCAST ‘POWERING YOUR CIRCUIT’ FOCUSES ON POWER SUPPLY DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Norwood, MA (07/07/2011) - Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) a world leader in semiconductors for high-performance signal processing applications, will broadcast its “Powering Your Circuit” webcast on July 13, 2011, at 2:00 pm EDT. This 60-minute webcast is the first dealing with the important – but often overlooked subject – of power supply design.

About The ‘Powering Your Circuit’ Webcast

The webcast will explore power supply operation, including the different types of power supplies, various conversion methods, how power supplies affect the signal chain and how to select the best regulator for your circuit. This webcast will additionally explain phenomenon such as noise, ripple, line and load regulation, power-supply rejection ratio, the effects of temperature change and other specifications that affect power supply performance.

Who Should Attend

Engineers and students new to the field, as well as those more experienced engineers looking for a refresher on power system design and component selection, will find this webcast very useful.

The Presenter

Andy Jenkins is an applications engineer in ADI’s Power Management Group. Andy has a B.Sc. Degree in Electronics from Southampton University in the U.K., holds two U.S. patents and has authored several technical papers on the subject of power management.

Fundamentals of Designing with Semiconductors For Signal Processing Applications Webcast Series From Analog Devices

Throughout 2011, Analog Devices is presenting the “Fundamentals of Designing with Semiconductors For Signal Processing Applications,” a monthly webcast series that guides participants through each stage of the basic signal chain, from amplifiers to data converters – those components that convert the analog electronic signal into a digital stream – then to the heart of many modern circuits, the digital processor, and then back to the analog domain. The series also covers what is needed to power today’s circuits, how to make them portable, how to lay them out, as well as provide an introduction to design tools, tips and techniques that help solve design challenges quickly. Each webcast is followed by a Q&A with a technical expert. To learn more about ADI’s online training resources for a variety of design needs, visit http://www.analog.com/pr/webcasts
