[Igor] made a VU meter with LEDs using 8 LEDs and 8 comparators. This is a fast way to get one of 8 bits to indicate an input voltage, but that’s only the equivalent of a 3-bit analog to digital ...

The easy-to-use successive-approximation analog-to-digital converters (SAR-ADCs) may not be as easy as you think. In my last article for EDN, “Simulating the front end of your ADC,” we talked about ...

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 noise‐shaping successive approximation register (NS‐SAR) analogue‐to‐digital converter represents an attractive hybrid architecture that merges the inherent energy efficiency and simplicity of ...

A successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) with a switched-capacitor programmable gain switched preamplifier (SC PGSA), as a basic component of an integrated ultra-low ...

Low-power successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent a critical technology in modern electronic systems, seamlessly bridging the analogue and digital realms ...

WILMINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Analog Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADI) today introduced a new portfolio of next-generation 16-to-24-bit, ultra-high precision successive approximation register (SAR) ...

Successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are commonly used in applications which require medium to high resolution. The major benefits of SAR ADCs are high ...

The ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider required the design of a custom ADC. The ADC developed for this application is a dual-channel 12-bit ADC test chip, in which each channel ...

Electronic Design is dedicated to keeping design engineers informed of the latest advancements in the engineering community. As such, we thought you would have interest in these resources from Mentor ...

Today’s sensor applications show a rising demand on miniaturized autonomous sensors nodes with extreme requirements on power dissipation. One core functionality of these sensor nodes is the conversion ...
