What if a century-old computing concept suddenly leapfrogged the most advanced GPUs on the planet? That’s exactly what researchers at Peking University have demonstrated with a new analog processor ...

Analog and digital signals are used to transmit information, such as audio or video, via electric signals. The main difference between the two is that in analog technology, information is translated ...

Researchers from Peking University say their resistive random-access memory chip may be capable of speeds 1,000 faster than ...

Ex-movie theater projectionist Steve Guttenberg has also worked as a high-end audio salesman, and as a record producer. Steve reviewed audio products for CNET and worked as a freelance writer for ...

Computers built with analogue circuits promise huge speed and efficiency gains over ordinary computers, but normally at the ...

Every sound you hear in real life is analog, but digital recording converts the original sound into a sequence of numbers. No wonder analog and digital sound so different! Ex-movie theater ...

Designed by Chinese scientists at Peking University, the analogue chip utilises resistive memory materials that may enable ...

In previous installments of the AudioFile, we've talked about basic PCM audio, which encodes audio into a series of numbers that a computer can play or manipulate. We've also discussed the process of ...
