 FROM THE PAGES OF ANALOG DIALOGUE
Analog Devices' Engineering University--Why YOU Should Attend
ADI's Engineering University program provides an excellent resource for learning about analog circuitry. The textbook, video lectures and labs teach analog theory to a high standard, seeding student curiosity; the virtual classroom facilitates international communication, question posing, and remote assistance; and the hardware design platforms inspire students to innovate.

Analog Dialogue
Complete Sensor-to-Bits Solution Simplifies Industrial Data-Acquisition System Design
At the heart of many industrial automation and process-control systems, programmable logic controllers employ multiple sensors and actuators to measure and control analog process variables such as pressure, temperature, and flow. This article shows how the highly integrated ADAS3022 reduces complexity, facilitating the design of multichannel data-acquisition systems.
