Analog


Many people believe that with the advent of inexpensive igital controls, analog design is a dying art. We disagree. What such people don't understand is that even though the control points of a circuit may be digital (e.g. as in a PW-modulate control), the underlying electrical model remains analog. A good understanding of analog design is necessary to understand and detect sources of noise and design ways to detect such noise and actively remove it if possible. Using such techniques we have detected noise spikes, harmonic noise and developed control algorithmics and circuits to remove such noise (for example to improve impedance machines and reduce wasted energy).

At Ion Machines, we enjoy problems that improve products and help our clients obtain higher accuracy than they thought possible and improve energy ratings, all at very modest unit costs. Our clients are accustomed to interacting with varying domain specific ways. They use their own language for specialized terms an expect an interaction that supports these terms and makes several known assumptions. For that reason we often personalize our products for clients by providing a natural language engine that parses typical queries and generates a more structured query to a structured database. Our experience in building these systems in a scalable way can be invaluable to you in diverse applications such as displaying relevant information, maintaining user interest and product support.
