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 ...

The key to obtaining the best performance on your successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is optimizing the driver amplifier and resistor-capacitor (RC) filter ...

A simple, speedy single-slope ADC with a biphasic conversion cycle and a decent accuracy. Read on to learn more!

DESIGN VIEW is the summary of the complete DESIGN SOLUTION contributed article, which begins on Page 2. There are many ways, and just as many opinions on the best method, to configure grounds for ADCs ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Despite the availability of FPGAs and microcontrollers, the historical use of analog circuitry to implement some ...

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 ...

Increasing pressure on production costs and, more generally, time to market, have impacted all levels of IC design. In this context, one of the major challenges is to avoid silicon failure or yield ...

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 ...

We were recently tipped off to quite a resource — on the Texas Instruments website, there’s a page where you can view and download a compendium of analog sub-circuits. Individual circuits can be ...
