To err is to be human. But what claims can be made about your system’s analog to digital converter (ADC)? We will review the extent of our conversion error rate ...

Did You Know? The “real” world we are living in is Analog! Whether it is sound, light, temperature or humidity, all are continuously varying things. However, when we want to communicate with the ...

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 ...

When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is used for the conversion of analog signals such as voltage to digital form so that they can be read and processed by a microcontroller or microprocessor. The user ...

Functionality of ADC/DACs, their performance characteristics, and how they have been improved. Advantages, disadvantages, and applications of various ADC/DAC architectures. How ADC/DACs are used in ...

Analog to digital converters have three key input ports along with data output ports as per digital resolution requirements. These inputs ports are Analog Signal, Reference and Clock. If we compare ...

Fig 1. By splitting the input signal into positive and negative portions and digitizing separately, this circuit allows a microcontroller’s unipolar ADC to handle bipolar signals and double its input ...
