Some basic questions?
Which is the difference between the dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio?
What input signals are appropriate to measure these quantities?
The dynamic range refers to current or voltage?
 

dynamic range vs snr

It is mentioned that the dynamic range is the value of input signal at which the SNR is 0 db.

I understand it better like that.

I think that what you mentioned is the sensitivity, but not the dynamic range.
 

different between snr and dr

Hi,
DR is used instead of SNDR sometimes.
Also in DS ADCs DR is expressed as 2^b in which b is ENOB.
Voltage or current makes no difference.
See this paper:



(the first one).
