[Free Online Seminar] "Teach Me AFE (Basics) - ADC Principles and How to Read AFE Datasheets" [Held: March 25, 2026] -Macnica

Event features

Seminar overview

We would like to inform you about Nisshinbo Microdevices' Semiconductor Basics Course, which is always very popular and attracts many participants.
This time we will be holding a seminar titled "Teach me about AFE (basics) - ADC principles and how to read AFE datasheets."

When using an AFE, many people have questions, such as not knowing how to read the datasheet.
In this seminar,Nisshinbo Microdevices Inc.AFEWe will introduce how to read the data sheet and provide theAFEWe will help you with your selection.

The difficulty level is beginner to intermediate.
Anyone who wants to learn the basics of ADCs, is having trouble selecting an AFE, or has any other issues is welcome to join us.
With recorded lectures and live chat Q&A sessions with lecturers and other engineers, even busy engineers can learn efficiently.

We look forward to your participation.

Date and time: Wednesday, March 25, 2026, 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
・Format/Tools: Web seminar/ZOOM
