In the last tutorial, we learned about counter-type ADCs, which are single slope ADCs with an incrementing slope. Further, the counter value only increments until it matches the analog input …
The counter type analog-to-digital converter is a simple ADC, also known as a staircase or ramp analog-to-digital converter. As its name suggests, it uses a binary counter for the conversion …
In this tutorial, we will discuss slope-type or integration-type ADCs. In the last tutorial, we discussed successive approximation and flash-type ADC. There are two types of slope ADCs: single slope …
In this tutorial, we will discuss the workings of a flash ADC. A flash ADC, or flash analog-to-digital converter, is the fastest type of ADC among all the other ADCs. …
In this tutorial, we will talk about successive approximation ADC. This type of ADC converts an analog signal into a digital signal using a binary search through all possible quantization …
The binary-weighted DAC is appropriate for DACs with low resolving power. This is because it requires a wide range of precise resistors to perform error-free operations for high-order DACs. It …
In this tutorial, we will discuss the workings of a binary-weighted resistor DAC. It consists of an inverting amplifier op-amp and a string of weighted resistors to distinguish each bit …
A transistor is an electronic component that is also used as a digital switch. It works similarly to a mechanical switch, but it is controlled by a digital high logic …
Zero crossing detection circuit comprises two main electronics components. One is an operational amplifier and the second one is passive electronic components such as resistors, capacitors. It detects a zero …
LED PCBs play an important and almost indispensable role in modern life. Whether it is the toys you play with, or the street lights outside your window, LED PCBs are …
