Term (Index)	Definition
analog device	device designed to realize analog functions; in analog systems output signal follows continuously input signal.
digital device, digital integrated circuit	devices and circuits designed to realize digital (computational) functions; in digital systems output signal in response to the input signal is either "on" or "off"; designed to assure as rapid as possible switch of output signal from "on" to "off" state (and vice versa) with as little energy as possible.
analog integrated circuit	integrated circuit realizing analog functions; in analog systems output signal follows continuously input signal.
