onboard compute capabilities and support for
edge AI.
The proliferation of sensors in modern aircraft
generates vast amounts of data, opening up new
possibilities for sophisticated AI systems to process
and analyze this information. For this reason, AI
applications in avionics are expanding, focusing
on tasks such as predictive maintenance, airline
route optimization, flight control optimization, and
autonomous operations. Semiconductors play an
important role in this transformation by ensuring
high reliability and precision in data transmission
from sensors to AI engines. High-integrity sensor-
to-bits solutions and advanced data converters are
needed to provide the accurate and dependable data
that AI systems require.
Analog Devices is supporting the aviation industry's
semiconductor revolution by
• Supplying engineers with design and simulation
tools to optimize their designs
The modern aircraft is seeing a
proliferation of sensors, but to
process the sensor data, we need
reliable ways to bring these data
with high fidelity from the sensors
to the computing machines. With the
right semiconductor technologies
in the signal chain, aircraft can
unlock new technologies like AI and
edge computing."
