A 12-bit ADC is used in a prototype sensor for temperature measurement that has a VFS of 10V. Calculate its resolution. How would this affect its performance in capturing subtle temperature changes?
💡 Hint: Apply the formula for resolution carefully!
You are tasked with designing an ADC system that requires a minimum sampling rate of 10 kHz to accurately capture an analog signal with a maximum frequency of 3 kHz. What would be the theoretical minimum sampling rate to ensure no aliasing? Explain why exceeding this rate is also beneficial.
💡 Hint: Use the Nyquist theorem to find the formulas and remember the impacts of exceeding minimum rates!
