thank you! That was a really great introduction to this subject after knowing about DA conversion for so long.I even had a good read about successive approximation. looking forward to watching more.
I first used an A/D convertor in late 80s. I used a schematic made with CMOS counters, opamps and a DAC08. The DAC I used to do the conversion back was also a DAC08. Interesting video.
Thanks for the interesting video. I had no idea how this actually worked. However, I do use my Arduino Nano as an ADC converter. It has 8 ADC inputs, does 10 bit conversions at around 1000 conversions per second, fits on a breadboard, and can send data to a PC via USB/Serial port. It's a pretty awesome device for around $20. Cheers from Canada :-)
Thanks Bill, I'd no idea of how a ADC works prior to watching your video. I presume a DAC works in reverse turning a digital Subbed.code into a voltage level?
just stumbled across your channel and I've subscribed. Please keep the videos coming because they are excellent. In this video you mentioned a textbook that you are using, could I please ask what is the name of the book? as I would also be interested in building digital circuits. I have an excellent grasp of analogue circuits and pretty good at the art of electronic repairs but the digital side of things I want to learn more about. Thanks for the great video.
I suspect they start with D/A first as its easier to demonstrate. You can set up a row of switches and a R-2R ladder and see what's going on easily.. this is how I first introduced my kids to binary, I started with the R-2R to show different combinations can produce an analog voltage then moved on to binary to 7 segment and binary to decimal ics and so on.. heres a video of a breadboard I put together with my eldest daughter ru-vid.com_Q0yXqdg-i0?feature=share it uses a step down transformer rectified I then fed the 100hz sinewave into a Schmitt trigger inverter to square it up, from there into a divide by 10 ic to give me 10hz then the carry out from there into another divide by 10 ic to get our 1hz clock .. as you can see theres a binary ic, a binary to 7seg and a binary to decimal to drive the nixie tube etc Another great video from you 😎👍 great demo Steve
