What is a DAC, or digital-to-analog converter? Here's how these common components work, and why audiophiles like to use upgraded versions for their music.

The usual method of bringing analog inputs into a microprocessor is to use an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Here are some tips for selecting such a part and calibrating it to fit your needs. In ...

Here is how to employ an XNOR logic gate alongside an ADC to perform multiplication without an MCU or traditional analog ...

Find out how a digital technique performs multiplication on two bitstreams and avoids the cost of the analog multiplier.

Analog-to-digital processing is performed by a converter in the recording studio; and must be converted from digital-to-analog to be listened to.

Analog-to-digital converters can pose an especially difficult challenge in this regard, offering a variety of different input sampling architectures that must be considered on the system level.

Analog anti-aliasing filters are required before the ADC in oversampled sampled-data systems, as is a reconstruction (anti-imaging) filter after the digital-to-analog converter (DAC).

All analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have a certain amount ofinput-referred noise. In most cases,less input noise is better. There are some cases, however, where inputnoise can actually be helpful ...

Energy-efficient successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent a rapidly evolving field in microelectronics, where substantial progress has been made in ...
