The design and optimisation of analog-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-analog converters (DACs) play a pivotal role in modern electronic systems, bridging the gap between the analog real world ...

The previous blog discussed how makers can select an A/D converter by understanding the application and how manufacturers optimize a part for that role. Now, what happens when an A/D fires up—how ...

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 ...

Engineers have reached a theoretical limit for efficiently converting analog data into digital bits in an emerging computer technology. The future of computing may be analog. The digital design of our ...

A new process technology allows system designers to avoid adding external signal conditioning, signal biasing, and external op amps in industrial-control and medical applications. Analog Devices calls ...

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 huge increase in variety and number of ways people interact with electronic communications systems is no secret. More cell phones, wireless computers, and other multifunction, media-rich products ...

Digitizing old tapes can be a challenge, but after using the Portta VHS converter, I found the process straightforward and mostly hassle-free. It handled VHS, camcorder tapes, and even gaming consoles ...
