Troubleshooting should include
- explaining the special interface encoders and decoders used between analog and digital devices
- describing how operational amplifiers are used in digital to analog (D/A) converters and comparators
- listing and explaining the characteristics of common specifications used for A/D conversion, such as type of output resolution, conversion time, accuracy, power supply voltage and input/output voltage levels
- building a circuit, using a A/D converter chip.
Process/Skill Questions:
- What is the difference between DAC and ADC?
- Why do digital or analog signals need to be converted?
- What is the name of a digital piece of electronic equipment that contains an A/D converter?
