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 ...

As high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have increased in sampling rate, so has the problem of code errors — also known as sparkle codes — in the ADC ...

With more analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) now supporting the latest JESD204B serial interface standard, questions are arising about the best way to ...

A great many industrial sensors — flow, level, temperature, pressure, pH, and the list goes on — produce a 4-20 mA output, but today's factories increasingly need digital inputs via standard field ...

Level-crossing analog-to-digital converters (LC-ADCs) represent an innovative approach to signal digitisation that departs from conventional uniform sampling. Instead of capturing signals at fixed ...

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.

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 ...

Over the past decades, the high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC) performance metric that mattered to most has changed, albeit slowly. Primarily as a result of signal acquisition systems’ ever ...

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 ...
