EEE C364/INSTR C364 Analog Electronics Integrated Circuit Power Amplifiers

This document discusses several types of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). It describes the functioning of single-slope ADCs, digital ramp ADCs, dual-slope ADCs, successive approximation ADCs, and parallel/flash ADCs. For each type of ADC, it provides details about the conversion process and operating principles. The document also mentions that the sampling frequency must be at least twice the maximum frequency of the input signal to satisfy the Nyquist frequency.

Converts analog signal into digital data
Used in Data acquisition systems & Digital
instruments etc
ADCs
Types of A/D Converters
1. Single Slope A/D converter
2. Digital ramp A/D converter
3. Dual slope A/D converter
4. Successive approximation A/D converter
5. Parallel or flash A/D converter
6. Two step flash A/D converter
7. Pipelined A/D converter
8. Sigma delta A/D converter
Single Slope A/D converter
Digital ramp A/D converter
Initially the counter is cleared
The analog signal is applied to one of the
inputs of the comparator
Counter o/p is converted into analog, by the
DAC
The DAC O/P is compared with the incoming
signal
Conversion stops when digital O/P >Incoming
signal
Digital ramp A/D converter
Dual slope A/D converter

Nyquist frequency: The sampling frequency must be atleast twice the
maximum frequency of the input signal. For example if the sampling
frequency is 5 kHz, then the Nyquist frequency is 2.5 kHz.
