Abstract:
A method for converting analog data to digital data includes operating an analog-to-digital data converter in a tracking mode to sample an input signal and in a convert mode to convert the sampled input signal after sampling to a digital signal. The analog-to-digital data converter is controlled with a controller to operate in different modes of operation by providing at least one step wherein the tracking mode of operation is controlled to initiate at a predetermined time to begin the sampling operation.
Abstract:
A circuit includes a successive approximation register A/D converter for performing analog to digital conversions. The register has a ground pin and a ground sense pin. The ground sense pin is connected to a ground port of the circuit. A multiplexer connects the ground sense pin of the successive approximation register A/D converter to one of a plurality of I/O ports of the circuit package. A switch selectively connects the ground sense pin of the successive approximation register A/D converter to the ground port.
Abstract:
A digital-to-analog converter having a semiconductor resistor strip with plural voltage taps. One voltage tap formed of the semiconductor material defines a nonzero reference voltage for the converter. An auto-zeroing amplifier is utilized to charge a coupling capacitor to the nonzero reference voltage. In the conversion process, the analog voltages at the other voltage taps of the resistor strip are selected via a switch arrangement and coupled to the coupling capacitor. The linearity of the digital-to-analog converter is thus more independent of parasitic resistances that may be formed in the ground connection to the resistor string.
Abstract:
An analog-to-digital converter configurable for converting both differential and single-ended analog signals. Charge sharing between two input capacitors and a DAC capacitor allow the full dynamic range of the ADC device to be used when full scale differential analog input signals are converted. When configured for single-ended operation, charge sharing of the half scale single-ended input analog voltage occurs between one input capacitor and the DAC capacitor to allow the full dynamic range of the ADC device to again be utilized.
Abstract:
A digital calibration system for an analog-to-digital converter system includes a computational system receiving digital bits from an analog-to-digital converter representing selection of elements of the digital-to-analog converter in response to an analog input. The computational engine produces a digital output representative of the analog input during conversion operation, and digital values for adjustment of an adjustable analog source during calibration. Further, a digital system comprises a radix-less-than-two non-configurable digital-to-analog converter, a comparator system connected to the converter, and a computational system configured for SAR calibration and conversion.
