The usual method of bringing analog inputs into a microprocessor is to use an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Here are some tips for selecting such a part and calibrating it to fit your needs. In ...

If you’ve ever listened to an MP3, watched a movie on Netflix, or jumped on a Zoom call, you’ve used a DAC. Digital-to-analog converters (or DACs for short) are the unsung heroes of the digital audio ...

Time-based analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent an innovative shift from traditional voltage-based conversion schemes by utilising time-domain techniques for digitising analog signals.

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 ...

In the Op Amp circuit shown in the figure, let Rf = 10kΩ, R1 = 10kΩ, R2 = 20kΩ, R3 = 40kΩ, and R4 = 80kΩ. Obtain the analog output for binary inputs [0000], [0001], [0010], . . . , [1111]. Using this ...

The distinction between analog and digital signals is very simple, but it can still be a challenge to wrap one's mind around the concepts that define the two systems. Just when you think you've got it ...

Today it seems that everything electronic is digital—a reasonable assumption considering it’s hard to find a turnable knob anywhere and values are displayed in digits everywhere. The underlying ...
