Explain the use of analog computers nowadays and name three companies

that use analog computers

The modern analogue general-purpose computer usually consists of a console that


contains: operational amplifiers, computer elements (such as summing networks,
integrating networks, attenuators, multipliers, and function generators), logic and
interface units, control circuits, of power, a connection board and various
measuring and visualization devices.

The junction board is designed to concentrate in one place the input and output
terminals of all programmable devices where all of these devices can be
conveniently interconnected through various cable lengths and plugs in order to
meet the requirements which raise a given problem.

There are currently no companies that use analog computers since digital
computers are much more functional and easier to manage.
