Successive-approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR-ADC) are frequently the architecture of choice for medium-resolution applications. SAR products on the market can operate at maximum ...

As much as it’s an analog world, it is often being chopped up into digital pieces. As communications go digital and the computing power increases, signals are being transformed into digital words that ...

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 ...

[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 ...

Successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters form a critical link between the analogue and digital realms in modern electronics. Operating through a binary search algorithm, ...

Three additions to the PulSAR family of successive-approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) offer sampling rates of 800 ksamples/s (AD7674), 100 ksamples/s (AD7678), and 570 ...

Basic review of how the different kinds of analog-to-ditital converters wor, with a sidebar relating them to appropriate applications. ADCs quantize time-varying analog voltages into a sequence of ...

Linear Tech has introduced the LTC2320-16, a 16-bit 1.5Msps per channel, no latency successive approximation register (SAR) ADC with eight simultaneously sampling channels supporting a rail-to-rail ...

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 ...

This analog-to-digital converter (ADC) uses successive approximation register (SAR) architecture to achieve 12-bit resolution. The ADC includes internal sample/hold circuits, a capacitive DAC, ... The ...

Energy-efficient successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent a rapidly evolving field in microelectronics, where substantial progress has been made in ...
