As much as it’s an analog world, it is often being chopped up into digital pieces. As communications go digital and the computing power increases, signals are being transformed into digital words that ...

One of the most challenging tasks in Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) design is to adapt the cicuitry to ever new CMOS process technology. For digital circuits the number of gates per square mm app.

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 ...

A cross-institutional team led by researchers from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE), under the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), have achieved a ...

Successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters form a critical link between the analogue and digital realms in modern electronics. Operating through a binary search algorithm, ...

Incremental analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and delta-sigma modulators represent two advanced architectures that have been pivotal in high-precision signal processing. Incremental ADCs convert ...

View PDF version of this article. What amplifiers are used to drive analog- to-digital converters (ADCs)? Possibilities include single-ended and differential inputs and outputs, plus voltage feedback ...

In previous installments of the AudioFile, we've talked about basic PCM audio, which encodes audio into a series of numbers that a computer can play or manipulate. We've also discussed the process of ...

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, ...

ATI Group debuted its Model UADC-1 utility analog-to-digital converter/switch. The company says it provides 24-bit conversion along with AES audio path insertion and interruption functions. It may be ...

Can a $249 digital-to-analog converter/headphone amplifier deliver state-of-the-art sound? The Audiophiliac listens to the AudioQuest DragonFly to find out. Steve Guttenberg Former contributor ...

Sensor applications requiring data converters range from temperature sensors identifying different engine status to radar/LIDAR enabling Automotive Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Other applications ...
