            the vexatious tyranny of the individual despot meets
            its analogue in the insolent tyranny of the many.

   2. philol. a word in one language corresponding with one in
      another; an analogous term; as, the latin "pater" is the
      analogue of the english "father."

   3. nat. hist.
      a an organ which is equivalent in its functions to a
          different organ in another species or group, or even
          in the same group; as, the gill of a fish is the
          analogue of a lung in a quadruped, although the two
          are not of like structural relations.
      b a species in one genus or group having its characters
          parallel, one by one, with those of another group.
      c a species or genus in one country closely related to a
          species of the same genus, or a genus of the same
          group, in another: such species are often called
          representative species, and such genera,
          representative genera. --dana.

analogue
     
         us: "analog" a description of a continuously
        variable signal or a circuit or device designed to handle such
        signals.  the opposite is "discrete" or "digital".
     
        analogue circuits are much harder to design and analyse than
        digital ones because the designer must take into account
        effects such as the gain, linearity and power handling of
        components, the resistance, capacitance and inductance of pcb
        tracks, wires and connectors, interference between signals,
        power supply stability and more.  a digital circuit design,
        especially for high switching speeds, must also take these
        factors into account if it is to work reliably, but they are
        usually less critical because most digital components will
        function correctly within a range of parameters whereas such
        variations will corrupt the outputs of an analogue circuit.
