The data converter has acted as the bridge between the analog (real) world and the digital world for a few decades now. Starting with discrete elements that took up multiple rack spaces and burnt lots ...

A number of ways to reduce power consumption in ADC circuit designs are described. Fig 1. Resistive-attenuator options for measuring high-voltage signals offer a simple way to limit an input signal to ...

Optical encoders (incremental/absolute), sonar receivers, fiber optic networks (EDFA gain control), power quality monitoring, medical imaging equipment, impedance ...

Positioning analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in a modern digital receiver is an important issue that strongly impacts the design choices and the implementation costs. To place the ADC immediately ...

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 ...

Meeting the demanding performance requirements of today’s system-on-a-chip (SoC) applications, whether in high-data-rate telecom systems or high-quality audio and video equipment, requires extensive ...

Precision signal chain designers are challenged to meet noise performance demands in medium bandwidth applications and often end up making a trade-off between noise performance and accuracy. Achieving ...
