2. Analog-to-digital converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog-to-digital_converter

   Analog-to-digital converter. In electronics, an analog-to-digital converter ( ADC, A/D, or A-to-D) is a system that converts an analog signal, such as a sound picked up by a microphone or light entering a digital camera, into a digital signal.

3. Digital-to-analog converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital-to-analog_converter

   In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter ( DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) performs the reverse function. There are several DAC architectures; the suitability of a DAC for a particular application is determined by figures of merit including ...

4. Successive-approximation ADC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Successive-approximation_ADC

   A DAC to convert the ith approximation xi to a voltage. A comparator to perform the function s(xi − x) by comparing the DAC's voltage with the input voltage. A register to store the output of the comparator and apply xi−1 − s(xi−1 − x)/2i. Operation of successive-approximation ADC as input voltage falls from 5 to 0 V. Iterations on ...

5. Integrating ADC - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrating_ADC

   Integrating ADC. An integrating ADC is a type of analog-to-digital converter that converts an unknown input voltage into a digital representation through the use of an integrator. In its basic implementation, the dual-slope converter, the unknown input voltage is applied to the input of the integrator and allowed to ramp for a fixed time period ...

6. Digital television transition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_television_transition

   Digital television transition. The digital television transition, also called the digital switchover ( DSO ), the analogue switch/sign-off ( ASO ), the digital migration, or the analogue shutdown, is the process in which older analogue television broadcasting technology is converted to and replaced by digital television.

7. Delta-sigma modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta-sigma_modulation

   Delta-sigma ( ΔΣ; or sigma-delta, ΣΔ) modulation is an oversampling method for encoding signals into low bit depth digital signals at a very high sample-frequency as part of the process of delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Delta-sigma modulation achieves high quality by utilizing a ...
