When working with mixed-signal technology, you will find that the subject of dithering keeps showing up. Most engineers know that averaging “n” samples of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) will ...

Applications such as test equipment and digital radio for electronic intelligence are pushing the limits for both dynamic range and data rates. This drive is increasing the need for high-rate, ...

One of my technical articles seemed to have fallen into a black hole. The magazine that had agreed to publish it apparently couldn’t figure out where or when to place it. But as soon as I wrote that ...

As we discussed at the beginning of this series, sampling has nothing to do with digitization, or quantization. A sampled signal can remain in the analog domain, though digitized signals are sampled ...

In digital images, there is a technique called ' dithering ' that is used to reduce the number of colors in an image or replace them with different colors. Design engineer Dan Hollick explains what ...
