Hybrid Computer

Hybrid computers are well known for their ability to blend analog and digital features of computers. Advantages include the availability of both analog and digital computations within a single unit and an efficient processing speed. A hybrid computer is individually designed and integrated, taking into consideration the field of its application and processing requirements. A hybrid computer is constructed in such a way that its components make the device fast and accurate.

However, a hybrid system is not the same as a hybrid computer; it is the physical machinery that defines whether a computer unit is hybrid or not, and hybrid systems typically only use analog-to-digital converters.
