Back in the day where the microprocessor was our standard building block, we tended to concentrate on computation and processing of data and not so much on I/O. Simply put there were a lot of things ...

When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...

The previous blog discussed how makers can select an A/D converter by understanding the application and how manufacturers optimize a part for that role. Now, what happens when an A/D fires up—how ...

Here's why I'm asking: I have a Denon AVR 3803 receiver. I like it quite a bit, except for one glaring (IMHO) omission; in order to use my Sennheiser wireless headphones, I have to run both analog and ...

A Raspberry Pi 5 has the ability to capture video via attached cameras and access the Internet using wired and wireless protocols, all while driving a pair of personal computer displays. However, if ...

Confused by analog-to-digital converter specifications? Here's a primer to help you decipher them and make the right decisions for your project. Although manufacturers use common terms to describe ...

In the Op Amp circuit shown in the figure, let Rf = 10kΩ, R1 = 10kΩ, R2 = 20kΩ, R3 = 40kΩ, and R4 = 80kΩ. Obtain the analog output for binary inputs [0000], [0001], [0010], . . . , [1111]. Using this ...

The design and optimisation of analog-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-analog converters (DACs) play a pivotal role in modern electronic systems, bridging the gap between the analog real world ...

Designers of digital systems are familiar with implementing the 'leftovers' of their digital design by using FPGAs and CPLDs to glue together various processors, memories, and standard function ...

Time-based analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent an innovative shift from traditional voltage-based conversion schemes by utilising time-domain techniques for digitising analog signals.

I have a nice little digital-to-analog sound converter. It's small like a USB stick, and it clears up any sound that passes through it - YouTube videos, old crappy mp3 files, high quality recordings.
