You’d think, since I’ve been mixed up in tech since 1980, that I would know my way around the terminology, but until now, I never really grasped what an “analog semiconductor” was. It sounds like an oxymoron. All this time, I figured TXN wasn’t much different than NVDA or any other semiconductor company. Wrong! Analog devices measure variable signals and “real-world” type data, and that sector is getting zapped hard today. Here are three representatives, with our old friend ON included:
 

TXN – Texas Instruments
 

ON – On Semiconductor
 

MCHP – Microchip Technology
