High-performance delta-sigma ADCs ease the limitations of embedded converters

complete systems-on-a-chip (SoC) has replaced the discrete components that once populated boards. The benefit of such systems is reduced system cost, increased reliability, and decreased size. IC ...

Increase Dynamic Range With SAR ADCs Using Oversampling, Part 1

In my previous blog, Which Is Better: SAR or Delta-Sigma ADCs?, I gave an overview of the delta-sigma and SAR (successive approximation register) ADCs. I discussed the technique of oversampling as it ...
