    摘要: An analog to digital converter apparatus arranged to convert a plurality C (= 4) of different input signals to digital representations therof. The apparatus comprises a multiplexer arranged sequentially to couple each of the 4 input signals to a fast a-to-d converter (such as a successive approximations converter) at a rate such that each input signal is coupled N (= 8) times in a period M (= 20m secs) of an a.c. series mode interfacing signal (at 50 Hz) and at equal time intervals M/N (20/8 = 2.5m secs). The N (= 8) digital values of each input signal are averaged to provide at the end of a conversion period a digital value for each of the 4 input signals (C) which is the mean magnitude of the signal during the 20m sec period (M).

    摘要: A digital output capacitive transducer wherein two capacitors (C u, C u) are used, one (C u) providing a reference current and the other providing a varying signal current. The signal current is obtained from an oscillator (10) through a capacitor (C u), which varies in capacitance as a function of the parameter to be measured. The reference current offsets the signal current to attain a known relationship between the sampled parameter and the signal current. The circuit has a small number of components and operates on a relatively low voltage with an accurate digital output.

    摘要: This disclosure describes techniques and methodologies of using passive continuous time (CT) delay line for high-speed CT analog-to-digital converter (ADC) applications. In a continuous-time residual producing stage common to these CT ADCs, a proper delay between the analog input and DAC output is crucial. Specifically, using an inductor-capacitor (LC) lattice based delay element to enable high-performance CT pipeline ADC and CT delta-sigma (ΔΣ) ADC. The use of an LC lattice based delay element provides wide-band group delay for continuous-time signals with well-controlled impedance. This will be an essential circuit component to build a high-performance CT ADCs especially in architectures where the generation of a low-noise and low-distortion residual between the CT signal and its digitized version is needed. LC lattice based delay element enables noise-free, distortion-free wideband delay that is required for high speed continuous-time pipeline ADC and delta-sigma ADC.
