Flash or Parallel ADC (Analog to Digital Converter)

This simulation illustrates the process of signal conversion from analog to digital (ADC), followed by digital to analog conversion (DAC) and filtering. The staircase waveform (blue) represents the DAC output, while the smooth curve (orange) shows the result after applying a low-pass filter, effectively reconstructing the original sine wave. This highlights how filters are essential in removing quantization noise and restoring clean analog signals from sampled data. #ElectronicsEducation #electr

This simulation demonstrates the concept of ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) sampling rates and how they affect the representation of an analog signal. The analog input is sampled at different frequencies—500 Hz, 1 kHz, and 2 kHz—using clock signals. As shown in the waveforms, higher sampling rates capture more details of the original signal, producing a smoother digital output, while lower sampling rates capture fewer points, leading to a more distorted and stair-stepped output.
