Abstract
Electronics has barely just begun to exploit the endless opportunities for analog techniques. Rather than rendering them obsolete, the recent explosion in digital communications systems has only increased the demand for both fully analog and mixed-signal integrated-circuit (IC) products. This paper is an unashamedly personal and bipolar-centric review of a few selected aspects of the contemporary landscape and offers several reasons for expecting an unending dependence on analog techniques
