Inverted dual-slope ADC boosts dynamic range

For at least four decades, dual-slope integrating A-to-D conversion has formed the core of most every digital multimeter and many industrial and instrumentation applications besides. Elegant in its ...

dual-slope ADC

A multimeter is an easy prospect, right? Back in the day you could make one fairly easily with a decent panel meter and a set of precision resistors, and now a digital one can be had for throwaway ...

Using Delta-Sigma Can Be As Easy As ADC (Part 2)

In my previous column, I took a historical approach to delta-sigma modulation with the single-slope converter (May 8, p. 18, ED Online 18747). Jim Williams of Linear Tech responded, and he sent me a ...

CMOS Low-Power ADC

The TC7109A device is a 12-bit plus sign, CMOS low-power analog-to-digital converter. Only eight passive components and a crystal are required to form a complete dual-slope integrating ADC. The ...
