1. Analog Computer Circuits, Part 1
If you think analog computers are a relic of the past, think again. Recent developments have made possible sophisticated analog computer ICs with unprecedented accuracy. One of these new circuits, billed as the first single-chip analog computer is the Analog Devices AD534 precision multiplier-divider. Available for about the same price as many microprocessors, the AD534 can perform all the MDSSR functions (multiplication, division, squaring and square rooting) with ease and in real time. There are no elaborate software requirements and the AD534 will perform any of these operations while the input information is changing at up to 1 MHz.
