Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) accuracy in simple terms

The previous blog discussed how makers can select an A/D converter by understanding the application and how manufacturers optimize a part for that role. Now, what happens when an A/D fires up—how ...

Analog-to-Digital Converters

The usual method of bringing analog inputs into a microprocessor is to use an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Here are some tips for selecting such a part and calibrating it to fit your needs. In ...

Leveraging FPGA and CPLD digital logic to implement analog to digital converters

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

Using input-referred noise to improve analog-to-digital converter resolution

All analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have a certain amount ofinput-referred noise. In most cases,less input noise is better. There are some cases, however, where inputnoise can actually be helpful ...

Analog-to-digital converter

The 12-bit, 1-MHz, ADS-1201 Series analog-to-digital converter is available in two versions — a small 28-pin DDIP or 28-pin SMT hermetically sealed ceramic package. The 12-bit, 1-MHz, ADS-1201 Series ...

Do modern AV receivers convert digital inputs to analog (apart from the speakers)?

Here's why I'm asking: I have a Denon AVR 3803 receiver. I like it quite a bit, except for one glaring (IMHO) omission; in order to use my Sennheiser wireless headphones, I have to run both analog and ...

analog digital converter

It’s a well-known conundrum that while most computers these days are digital in nature, almost nothing in nature is. Most things we encounter in the real world, whether it’s temperature, time, sound, ...
