### Does Higher Sampling Rate Increase SNR?

I have AM demodulated voice samples that come from a 14bit ADC that I will filter, process, and then send to a CODEC. I can choose a sample rate of 96kSPS, 64kSPS, 48kSPS, or 32kSPS at the CODEC. ...

### What is the difference between undersampling and oversampling in analog to digital conversion ?

When converting a signal from analog to digital, we observe undersampling and oversampling. Does oversampling means that the sampling frequency is greater that the signal's frequency and does ...

### How increasing the Signal to Quantization noise increases the resolution of ADC

Inside ADC we have a quantizer, when the sampled signal is passed through it, the signal values get discretized. The number of discrete levels in which the signal is discretized is called the ...

### Increasing SNR and Dynamic Range using Oversampling

How much gain in dynamic range and SNR can be expected if we are to oversample a signal with fixed analog input bandwidth. For Example if I have a analog filter at the input which limits the bandwidth ...

### How to choose FFT depth for ADC performance analysis (SINAD, ENOB)

I am trying to simulate a model of an ADC and determine its performance. One of the interesting properties is the ENOB (Effective Number Of Bits), which can be calculated from SINAD (SIgnal-to-Noise ...

### Precision measurement of sine wave amplitude with ADC

I want to measure amplitude of a sine wave input precisely with a limited resolution ADC. As an example suppose that I have $1\textrm{ MHz}$ pure sine wave input to the $320\textrm{ Msps}$ $10$-bit ...

### SNR of a 16-bit DSP with 12-bit ADC, 40-bit accumulator

According to the 6dB-per-bit rule, a 16-bit DSP would provide 96 dB of dynamic range, approximately. If the ADC and DAC are both 12-bit long, the DSP is still considered to have 96 dB, or the ...
