Engineers always want to get all they can from their circuits; this holds for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). To maximize performance from an ADC, resolution is perhaps the primary spec to focus ...

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, ...

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 ...

One of the major trends for ADCs is the move toward higher resolution. The trend impacts a wide range of applications, including factory automation, temperature sensing, and data acquisition. The need ...

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 ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. 2013 has been a remarkable year for performance improvements in successive-approximation architecture (SAR) ...

How to measure linearity of an ADC using sine-wave input. How do non-idealities of a sine wave affect ADC linearity while testing it. Testing an ADC’s linearity. To obtain the transfer function of an ...

14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) oscilloscope delivers four times the signal resolution and half the noise floor of other general-purpose oscilloscopes Instrument built from the ground up with ...

Renesas has brought out a sensor signal conditioner (SSC) – the ZSSC3240 – for sensor applications such as resistive pressure sensors and medical infrared thermometers features with up to 24 bits ADC ...
