Analog To Digital Conversion – Performance Criteria

Analog To Digital Conversion – Performance Criteria

Overview In this series of articles, we considered PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) as a method of digital representation of an analog signal. In the PCM method, the samples of the continuous wave are allowed to take only certain discrete values. These amplitudes are then assigned a code,...
