comparator. At the end of a conversion, the DAC output The Effective Number of Bits (ENOBs) is a measurement of balances the AIN input charge. The SAR contents (a 12-bit the resolution of an ADC and is directly related to the data word) which represent the AIN are loaded into the S/(N + D) by the equation: 12-bit output latches. N = [S/(N + D) – 1.76]/6.02

sum of all harmonics of the input signal to the fundamental itself. The out-of-band harmonics alias into the frequency band between DC and half the sampling frequency. THD is
Signal-to-Noise Ratio
expressed as: The Signal-to-Noise plus Distortion Ratio [S/(N + D)] is the √V 2 + V 2 + V 2 ... + V 2 ratio between the RMS amplitude of the fundamental input THD = 20log 2 3 4 N V frequency to the RMS amplitude of all other frequency 1 components at the A/D output. The output is band limited where V1 is the RMS amplitude of the fundamental fre- to frequencies from above DC and below half the sampling quency and V2 through VN are the amplitudes of the frequency.
