❑ Adding more resolution is a simple matter of adding more resistors, comparators, and latches. The
combinational logic code converter would also be different.
❑ Unlike with the successive approximation converter, adding resolution does not increase the time
required for a conversion.
Advantages
✓ Simplest in terms of operational theory
✓ Most efficient in terms of speed, very fast limited only in terms of comparator and gate
propagation delays
Disadvantages
✓ Lower resolution
✓ For each additional output bit, the number of comparators is doubled (2𝑛−1 )
✓ Expensive
The output variables for this system are y1 and y2. Define state variables as
➢ Consider the differential equation system that involves derivatives of the forcing
function, such as
The main problem in defining the state variables for this case lies in the derivative terms
of the input u. The state variables must be such that they will eliminate the derivatives of
u in the state equation.
