While the accompanying article addresses high-speed digital test, Digilent Inc. has been helping its customers meet challenges related to the design and test of high-speed analog interfaces and data-acquisition applications. "Many modern electronic systems, including RF, instrumentation, imaging, and test devices require high-speed and/or high-precision analog inputs," said Steve Johnson, Digilent president. "These subsystems require a complex mix of analog, digital, and power-supply circuitry"—design specialties that he said are often difficult to find and therefore often slow down the design process and raise the cost to develop and prototype cutting-edge systems.
