When you select RRS (random repetitive sampling) in a scope that provides an RRS mode, your instrument operates at the opposite end of the sampling-rate spectrum from scopes that, at their fastest ...

Teledyne LeCroy’s updated line of analog and mixed-signal oscilloscopes, with their simple-to-use interface, leverages 10X oversampling of a 1-GHz signal for maximum accuracy. It’s not every day I see ...

Communications receiver architecture has evolved slowly over the years. The most common and successful configuration is the superheterodyne architecture, which translates the incoming signal to a ...

High vertical resolution analogue-to-digital converters provide the signal detail for everyday devices, writes Andreas Grimm of Rohde & Schwarz. Today, even the most commonplace electronic designs ...

No matter how many bits an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) provides, the digital output can only approximate the original signal. This approximation gives rise to ...

The market for audio applications and devices has significantly grown over the last couple of years. Applications such as smart speakers, Bluetooth speakers, smartphones, and voice-controlled ...

A previous column, Oversampling Reduces Quantization Errors, included a diagram for, and a short description of, a single-stage sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC produced a stream ...
