Resolution is key in maximizing the performance of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). But here comes the rub: resolution of an ADC comes with a specific voltage reference. So, what if design ...

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, or ADCs, are somewhat monolithic devices for most users, a black box that you ask nicely for the value on its input, and receive a number in return. For most readers, ...

The design and optimisation of analog-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-analog converters (DACs) play a pivotal role in modern electronic systems, bridging the gap between the analog real world ...

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.

Canadian electronics geek and nascent YouTuber [Technoyaki] wanted to measure 20 volt signals on his Arduino. One might typically use a voltage divider to knock them down to the 5 volt range of the ...

HiFi-enthusiasts that are looking for an analog-to-digital converter may be interested in a new converter created by Michael Glintzer and his team called the ADICON. ADICON is a high resolution ADC ...

CHANDLER, AZ—To address applications that demand higher-speed and higher-resolution analog-to-digital conversion, Microchip Technology Inc. has announced 12 new Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ...

We present a 5 MSample/s current steering digital-to-analog converter which has a programmable resolution between 8 bit, 10 bit and 12 bit. A selectable 2-D unary matrix architecture and a resolution ...
