INTELLIGENT CYCLIC ADC. PRINCIPLES OF FUNCTIONING, OPTIMISATION AND ANALYSIS
Journal Title: Metrology and Measurement Systems - Year 2006, Vol 13, Issue 4
Abstract
The aim of the paper is a presentation of conceptual backgrounds of a new approach to design and analysis of high-efficient intelligent analog-to-digital converters (ADC). Particularities of intelligent conversion, methods of its practical implementation and advantages over conventional methods of conversion are discussed. The analysis is carried out on the example of "intelligent" cyclic ADC (IC ADC), which employ, as the prototype, the architecture of known cyclic ADC developed by Analog Devices Inc. [1, 2]. There is shown the method of extension of the proposed approach for development of more advanced versions of IC ADC with extended range of application and processing possibilities. The paper generalizes the results of previous investigations.

FORMAL DEFINITION AND PROPERTIES OF FEB-BASED ENOB OF INTELLIGENT CYCLIC ADC
The paper presents a new approach to the measurement of effective resolution (effective number of bits - ENOB) of the cyclic A/D converters (CADCs). The core idea of the approach is a direct measurement of ENOB using, as...
