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 ...

Did You Know? The “real” world we are living in is Analog! Whether it is sound, light, temperature or humidity, all are continuously varying things. However, when we want to communicate with the ...

Functionality of ADC/DACs, their performance characteristics, and how they have been improved. Advantages, disadvantages, and applications of various ADC/DAC architectures. How ADC/DACs are used in ...

In this week’s video, we continue on where we left off last week with another in our series of videos where we discuss how to program for the ATmega328p processor. This week, [Jack] takes a look at ...

Leuven, Belgium and Eindhoven, the Netherlands: At the International Solid State Circuit Conference, Imec and the Holst Centre demonstrated an ultra-low power 8 bit analog to digital convertor (ADC) ...

Applications that are a perfect fit for 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) systems are multiplexed circuits, handheld meters, data loggers, automotive systems, and monitoring systems. In these ...

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 ...

Analog‑to‑digital conversion (commonly shortened to ADC) sits at the very heart of contemporary sonic creation. Before the age of computers, sound existed as unbroken waves that musicians shaped ...

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 ...

A great many industrial sensors — flow, level, temperature, pressure, pH, and the list goes on — produce a 4-20 mA output, but today's factories increasingly need digital inputs via standard field ...
