==Merge Analog signal and Analog circuit==
{{WikiProject banner shell|class=C|vital=yes|
After reading the articles on ]s and ]s, there seems to be a lot of material in common. In fact they seem to have so much in common it seems to be a good idea to merge them all here, and treat what minor differences there are in separate sections within this article. ] 11:27, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

:I disagree. The conceptual analog signal is not the same as an analog circuit. If anything, the "Analogue signals" section should be dumped into ]. ] 07:03, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

::I wasn't implying they were the same thing, merely that the articles had the same content, (practically word-for-word in some parts). Given that "Analogue Signals" and "Analogue Circuits" are the essence of analogue electronics I suggested they were merged, otherwise I'm not sure what the "Analogue Electronics" article would contain that wasn't in one of the other two...? ] 08:40, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

==Weak==
Needs cleanup - windy generalizations such as "Analogue circuits are several times faster than their digital counterparts." are effectively meansingless - what's the analog counterpart of a ROM? On my to-do list, if no-one beats me to it. --] 18:43, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

== Analog VS Analogue ==

A search on www.].com gives over 85 Million results for "Analog", but only 27.2 Million results for "Analog'''''ue'''''". Also, the page for ] shows 16 entries with the spelling "Analog", and only two with "Analogue". Given that "Analog" is the more common spelling, and closer to the ] (''ana'' + ''logos'') as well, can this page be moved to "Analog Electronics", and the spelling within its sub-sections be changed from "analogue" to "analog"? ] 21:36, 13 January 2007 (UTC)


Comments by ] 11:07, 5 May 2007 (UTC):

I agree with changing the spelling of the title from "analogue" to "analog". I have never seen it spelled "analogue" before, and I think this indicates that most people spell it "analog". If I remember to, I will try to move the article within a few days if that's okay with everybody.

:NO, it's not OK. See ]. The article was started in British English, so should be left that way. ] 16:27, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

==Merge proposal==

Between ] and ]; The former seems to be a subset of the content (or should-be content) of the latter. ] 15:38, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

:'''Support''' – There's no need for new analog device article. Just redirect it over here and advise the author to merge anything he feels this article is missing. ] 16:56, 2 June 2007 (UTC)


I think it will be an excellent idea to merge ] into ]. It doesn't make any sense to keep two related topics separate! Especially when one is a part of the other!] 03:01, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

== Merger ideas ==

There seems to be two discussions going on in this forum. Analog vs Analogue and device vs electronics. Analog is the more widely used term (e.g. analog devises, the IC chip manufacturer) and should be the main topic with a paragraph about the origin of the word. Also Analog circuits should be merged with Analog Devices they describe the same thing. I believe the title should be Analog Electronics which is the more accurate description and to not give free advertising to the manufacturer Analog Devices. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 22:25, 3 September 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
