The company's testing facility is located in General Trias, Philippines and Penang, Malaysia.[24] Design centers are located in Australia, Canada, China, Egypt, England, Germany, India, Israel, Japan, Scotland, Spain, Taiwan and Turkey.[23]
Raymond Stata is a founder of Analog Devices and was responsible for the business strategy and product roadmap.[5][25] After founding the company in 1965, Stata served as the company's chairman of the board of directors from 1973 to 2022, CEO from 1973 to 1996 and president from 1971 to 1991.[26] In addition, Stata is also a trustee of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,[26] his alma mater[25] and was awarded the IEEE Founders medal in 2003.[5] Stata received the EE Times "Lifetime Achievement" award in 2008.[27] Stata served as the chairman of the Semiconductor Industry Association for the year 2011.[28]
Vincent Roche became president and CEO of Analog Devices in May 2013 and Chairman of the Board in June 2022.[29] He first joined the company in 1988 as a marketing director in Limerick, Ireland.[30][31]
Barrie Gilbert was named the first Technology Fellow of Analog Devices in 1979.[32][33] In addition, Gilbert was an IEEE Life Fellow[34] and held over 65 patents.[32] Gilbert is best known for the "Gilbert cell" – an electronic multiplying mixer.[34] At Analog Devices, Gilbert started the company's Northwest Labs design center in Oregon and continued to work on RF products crafted with high-speed nonlinear circuit techniques.[35]
Paul Brokaw is an expert on integrated circuit design who has spent most of his career at Analog Devices, where he holds the position of Analog Fellow.[36] Brokaw is the inventor of many analog IC circuits, including the Brokaw bandgap reference and holds over 100 patents.[37] He is also an IEEE Life Fellow.[38]
Robert Adams is Technical Fellow[39] and manager of audio development at Analog Devices Inc.[39][40] Adams holds many patents related to the audio and electronic field.[41] He is a member of the IEEE and a Fellow in the Audio Engineering Society.[42] Adams received a finalist ranking for the EDN Innovation and Innovator of the Year award in 1995.[41]
Jerald G. Fishman was the CEO and president of Analog Devices from 1996 until his death in March 2013.[43] In 2004, Fishman was named CEO of the Year by Electronic Business. He was a 35-year veteran of Analog Devices and also served on the board of directors of Analog Devices, Cognex Corporation and Xilinx.
Analog Devices products include analog signal processing and digital signal processing technologies.[44] These technologies include data converters, amplifiers, radio frequency (RF) technologies, embedded processors or digital signal processing (DSP) ICs, power management, and interface products.[44]
Data converters include analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs)[44] that convert electrical signal representations of real-world analog phenomena, such as light, sound, waveforms, temperature, motion, and pressure into digital signals or data, and back again.[45] Analog Devices ADC and DAC ICs are used in medical systems, scientific instrumentation, wireless and wired communications, radar, industrial process control, audio and video equipment, and other digital-processing-d systems, where an accurate signal conversion is critical. Data converters account for more than 50% of ADI's revenue.[46] ADI's companion amplifier ICs provide accurate, high-speed and precise signals for driving data converters and are key for applications such as digital audio, current sensing, and precision instrumentation.[47]
The company's data converter chips are used by National Instruments in high-precision measurement instrumentation systems.[48] Its data converters and amplifiers are also used by scientists and researchers in project "IceCube" – an underground telescope that uses digital optical modules (DOMS) to detect subatomic particles in the South Pole.[49][50]
