Today's analog system designers face many design challenges. Not only do designers need to select the proper integrated-circuit components, but they also must accurately predict the interactions of ...

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 ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. The ADS8354, ADS7854, and ADS7254 belong to a family of pin-compatible, dual, high-speed, simultaneous-sampling, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that ...

As high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have increased in sampling rate, so has the problem of code errors — also known as sparkle codes — in the ADC ...

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, ...

NuForce introduced the DAC-9 Digital-to-Analog Converter, Preamplifier and Headphone Amplifier offering six digital inputs to cover the full range of current digital formats. Each input feeds a pair ...

Photonic analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) represents a paradigm shift in signal processing by leveraging the inherent advantages of photonic devices to digitise analog signals. The approach aims to ...

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 ...
