Types of ADC:
Digital-Ramp ADC
Successive Approximation ADC
Flash ADC
Digital-Ramp ADC:
The successive approximation ADC is much faster than the digital ramp ADC because it
uses digital logic to converge on the value closest to the input voltage. A comparator and
a DAC are used in the process. A flowchart explaining the working is shown in the figure
below.
Illustrated is a 3-bit flash ADC with resolution 1 volt (after Tocci). The resistor net
and comparators provide an input to the combinational logic circuit, so the conversion
time is just the propagation delay through the network - it is not limited by the clock rate
or some convergence sequence. It is the fastest type of ADC available, but requires a
comparator for each value of output (63 for 6-bit, 255 for 8-bit, etc.) Such ADCs are
available in IC form up to 8-bit and 10-bit flash ADCs (1023 comparators) are planned.
The encoder logic executes a truth table to convert the ladder of inputs to the binary
number output.
