  • CHAPTER 3 ADC and DAC
    CHAPTER 3 ADC and DAC Most of the signals directly encountered in science and engineering are continuous: light intensity that changes with distance; voltage that varies over time; a chemical reaction rate that depends on temperature, etc. Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) and Digital-to-Analog Conversion (DAC) are the processes that allow digital computers to interact with these everyday signals. Digital information is different from its continuous counterpart in two important respects: it is sampled, and it is quantized. Both of these restrict how much information a digital signal can contain. This chapter is about information management: understanding what information you need to retain, and what information you can afford to lose. In turn, this dictates the selection of the sampling frequency, number of bits, and type of analog filtering needed for converting between the analog and digital realms. Quantization First, a bit of trivia. As you know, it is a digital computer, not a digit computer. The information processed is called digital data, not digit data. Why then, is analog-to-digital conversion generally called: digitize and digitization, rather than digitalize and digitalization? The answer is nothing you would expect. When electronics got around to inventing digital techniques, the preferred names had already been snatched up by the medical community nearly a century before. Digitalize and digitalization mean to administer the heart stimulant digitalis. Figure 3-1 shows the electronic waveforms of a typical analog-to-digital conversion. Figure (a) is the analog signal to be digitized. As shown by the labels on the graph, this signal is a voltage that varies over time.

  • Compensation of Reconstruction Filter Effect in Digital Signal Processing System
    Journal of Signal Processing, Vol.18, No.3, pp.121-134, May 2014 PAPER Compensation of Reconstruction Filter Effect in Digital Signal Processing System Sukanya Praesomboon1, Kobchai Dejhan1 and Surapun Yimman2 1Faculty of Engineering, King Mongkut’s Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, Bangkok 10520, Thailand 2Faculty of Applied Science, King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok, Bangkok 10800, Thailand E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This paper proposes the reduction effect of reconstruction filter for digital signal processing system. It is well known that the reconstruction filter limits the bandwidth of output signal processing and the output signal is staircase form or has high frequency components. For effect reduction we use the nonrecursive system which corresponds with the inverse system function of the reconstruction filter. The initial step starts with the analog system function of the reconstruction filter and is converted to a discrete-time system using the approximation of derivative technique and inverse system. This inverse discrete-time system function is a nonrecursive system to compensate the reduction effect of the reconstruction filter implemented by using the software. For hardware experiments, we use TMS320C31 digital signal processor, D/A, PIC-32 microcontroller, PWM analog output. The experimental results of the proposed principle show that it can be used to compensate the bandwidth and reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD) of high frequency signal. In addition, this experiment shows that the nonrecursive system for compensation uses only first-order system and it does not utilizes any more processor. Furthermore, it is able to increase the performance.

Secs. 4.1 – 4.3, Secs. 8.1 – 8.5 1 The Sampling Theorem Given a set of samples {fn} and its generating function f(t), an important question to ask is whether the sample set uniquely defines the function that generated it? In other words, given {fn} can we unambiguously reconstruct f(t)? The answer is clearly no, as shown below, where there are obviously many functions that will generate the given set of samples. f(t ) t In fact there are an infinity of candidate functions that will generate the same sample set. The Nyquist sampling theorem places restrictions on the candidate functions and, if satisfied, will uniquely define the function that generated a given set of samples. The theorem may be stated in many equivalent ways, we present three of them here to illustrate different aspects of the theorem: • A function f(t), sampled at equal intervals ΔT , can not be unambiguously reconstructed from its sample set {fn} unless it is known a-priori that f(t) contains no spectral energy at or above a frequency of π/ΔT radians/s.

A Resampling Theory for Non-bandlimited Signals and Its Applications Beilei Huang A thesis presented for the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering at Massey University, Wellington New Zealand 2008 Abstract Currently, digital signal processing systems typically assume that the signals are bandlim- ited. This is due to our knowledge based on the uniform sampling theorem for bandlimited signals which was established over 50 years ago by the works of Whittaker, Kotel'nikov and Shannon. However, in practice the digital signals are mostly of finite length. This kind of signals are not strictly bandlimited. Furthermore, advances in electronics have led to the use of very wide bandwidth signals and systems, such as Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) communication systems with signal bandwidths of several giga-hertz. This kind of signals can effectively be viewed as having infinite bandwidth. Thus there is a need to extend existing theory and techniques for signals of finite bandwidths to that for non-bandlimited signals. Two recent approaches to a more general sampling theory for non-bandlimited sig- nals have been published. One is for signals with finite rate of innovation. The other introduced the concept of consistent sampling. It views sampling and reconstruction as projections of signals onto subspaces spanned by the sampling (acquisition) and re- construction (synthesis) functions.
