Making sound with digital logic usually calls for a Digital to Analog converter. Building one can be very simple, and the sound quality out of an R-2R Ladder is actually pretty good. In the last ...

As much as it’s an analog world, it is often being chopped up into digital pieces. As communications go digital and the computing power increases, signals are being transformed into digital words that ...

In previous installments of the AudioFile, we've talked about basic PCM audio, which encodes audio into a series of numbers that a computer can play or manipulate. We've also discussed the process of ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

Grass Valley markets the ADVC-G1 converter as an any-source-to-3G SDI converter, but specifically they mean it's an HDMI input, DVI-I input, and analog video input converter. The "I" in DVI-I stands ...

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 ...

Today it seems that everything electronic is digital—a reasonable assumption considering it’s hard to find a turnable knob anywhere and values are displayed in digits everywhere. The underlying ...
