What’s the Difference Between ADCs and DACs? (.PDF Download)

Oct. 9, 2015

Data converters provide a transition between the analog and digital signal realms. The two basic converter types, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), share many common circuit elements and even come in similar multi-pin packages. Key performance parameters are identical between...
