The most common architectures used in modern analog to digital converter (ADC) design are the successive approximation register (SAR), the sigma-delta and the pipeline. Each architecture has its own ...

SAR (successive-approximation-register) ADCs combine with analog gain cells to yield a seemingly perfect fit for applications such as handheld meters, data loggers, automotive systems, and monitoring ...

Shown is a simplified continuous-time sigma-delta ADC model, comprising a sigma-delta modulator and a decimation filter. The DT-S? input structure typically implements switched capacitors, and CT-S?

In part one, I compared the different Analog to Digital Converters (ADC) and the roles and properties of Delta Sigma ADC’s. I covered a lot of the theory behind these devices, so in this installment, ...

The requirement of effective analog to digital conversion and accuracy gives growth to converters. The sigma delta modulator have a salient feature of shaping the noise, such that noise reduces from ...

One of the most challenging tasks in Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) design is to adapt the cicuitry to ever new CMOS process technology. For digital circuits the number of gates per square mm app.

Sensors that measure real-world variables seldom have output signals that can be directly connected to a data converter in a system. Typically, there are requirements to amplify, filter, shift offset, ...

Incremental analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and delta-sigma modulators represent two advanced architectures that have been pivotal in high-precision signal processing. Incremental ADCs convert ...

This article will explain continuous-time sigma-delta (CTSD) ADC technology in a less traditional approach, enabling signal chain designers toenvision a new class of easy to use precision ADC ...

It’s a well-known conundrum that while most computers these days are digital in nature, almost nothing in nature is. Most things we encounter in the real world, whether it’s temperature, time, sound, ...
