Practical Design Considerations
Now that we know how data converters work and we have settled on some basic terms, let us discuss practical design considerations. The remaining chapters in this book describe how a specific IC data converter can be used. The information in this chapter applies to all data converters, both ADC and DAC, and is included primarily so that the reader can select a converter to suit a specific system need. This should keep overspecification (with the usual high cost) to a minimum.
When reading this chapter, and all subsequent chapters, keep in mind that specific parameters, test conditions, test circuits, and even definitions might vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. For practical production reasons, parameters ...
