Analog to Digital Converters (ADC) Ben Lester, Mike Steele, Quinn Morrison
Topics Introduction Why? Types and Comparisons Successive Approximation ADC example Applications ADC System in the CML-12C32 Microcontroller
Analog systems are typically what engineers need to analyze. ADCs are used to turn analog information into digital data.
Process Sampling, Quantification, Encoding
Resolution, Accuracy, and Conversion time Resolution – Number of discrete values it can produce over the range of analog values; Q=R/N Accuracy – Improved by increasing sampling rate and resolution. Time – Based on number of steps required in the conversion process.
