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, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Confused by analog-to-digital converter specifications? Here's a primer to help you decipher them and make the right decisions for your project. Although manufacturers use common terms to describe ...

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 ...
