Sigma-delta converters are in wide use among applications that demand high precision and accuracy. A variant of the sigma-delta architecture, called the continuous-time sigma delta (CT-S?), has found ...

Level-crossing analog-to-digital converters (LC-ADCs) represent an innovative approach to signal digitisation that departs from conventional uniform sampling. Instead of capturing signals at fixed ...

A signal chain consists of several components, such as amplifiers, data converters, interface, clocks and timing. The purpose of the signal chain is to gather and process data or apply system controls ...

Comprehensive introduction to analysis of continuous and discrete-time signals and systems. Linear time-invariant systems, convolution; Fourier series representations of periodic signals; Continuous ...

Sampling a signal causes the original signal spectrum (blue) to create sum (purple) and difference (red) frequencies around the sampling frequency, fS. When the difference signals fall into the ...

The Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is a key component in digital communications receive channels, and the correct choice of ADC is critical for optimizing system design. In this article, we discuss ...
