UNCERTAINTY EVALUATION IN DITHERED A/D CONVERTERS

Filippo Attivissimo, Nicola Giaquinto, Mario Savino
Abstract:
In this paper formulae for evaluating the uncertainty of measurements (direct and indirect) performed by means of an ADC-based device are presented. The complex technique of dithering is used to reduce the effect of noise and to increase the ADC resolution. The authors discuss a way of writing and interpreting the uncertainty specifications of ADCs.
