Hi fellows
I've got a quick question regarding the resolution of ADC
When people are talking about resolution of ADC (Ex: 8-bit ADC), is this 8-bit is directly related to the number of comparators?
If so, what determines the resolution of sigma-delta ADC?
Sigma-Delta ADC has a feedback in it, so even though it only has a 3-bit Quantizer, the ENOB of this ADC can be 12-bit or higher than this depending on the design.
This is very confusing me when people are talking about the resolution of ADCs.
If one of you can answer my question, I would greatly appreciate the help!
Thank you
