Analog Devices

Analog Devices (ADI) is a global semiconductor company designing high-performance analog, mixed-signal, and digital signal processing integrated circuits for industrial, communications, automotive, and consumer markets. ADI provides developer tools through its CodeFusion Studio embedded development environment and the ADI Developer Portal. ADI's APIs are primarily embedded software APIs for microcontrollers and DSPs via the libiio library for Linux Industrial I/O devices, pyadi-iio Python interfaces, and security APIs within the ADI Assure Trusted Edge Security Architecture. The company also maintains the no-OS driver library for bare-metal embedded systems.
