About Data Acquisition - Analog to Digital Converters (ADC)
Analog to digital converters (ADCs) are electronic devices that convert continuous analog signals into digital representations suitable for processing by digital systems. They are essential components in data acquisition systems, sensors, instrumentation, and communication devices where analog signals need to be digitized for analysis, storage, or transmission. ADCs vary in resolution, speed, accuracy, and input voltage range, allowing designers to select the appropriate device based on the application's requirements.
