[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 ...

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 ...

Editor's note: We will publish this article in four sequential parts leading up to our “Ask the experts” session on Precision Voltage References on May 21. Alan Walsh will be one of our experts. The ...

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 ...

[Editor's note: Another ADI look into the world of electronics mystery from the series “Rarely Asked Questions: Strange but True Stories From the Call Logs of Analog Devices” guest authored by Maithil ...

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 ...

The three most popular ADC types generally found in analog front ends are successive-approximation (a), pipelined (b), and delta-sigma (c). These block diagrams represent extremely simplified concepts ...

At the International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco, Analog Devices revealed a 20-bit 1Msample/s successive approximation ADC with 0.3ppm INL (integral non‑linearity). Key to this ...

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) ...

Renesas has revamped the high-accuracy analogue front-end in its 32bit RX microcontrollers. Implemented in RX23E-B MCUs, the 24bit ΔΣ ADC, depending on configuration, can now convert at up to ...
