Description and Design Goals

All the naturally occurring signals are analog in nature and they need to be converted to a digital signal for various applications like digital signal processing, biomedical signal processing, home automation, and also in radar applications. This needs an interface for digital-to-analog, and analog-to-digital signal conversion. This can be achieved by Data Converters. Analog-to-Digital Converter plays a very important role to convert analog signals to digital signals which helps the systems in processing the signal in digital domain.
