Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A 16-bit D/A converter is used in a high-fidelity audio application. Calculate the dynamic range and discuss why it's suitable for this application.

💡 Hint: Use the dynamic range formula to relate bit depth to output.

Challenge 2 Hard

Consider a scenario where a video camera has a dynamic range of 65 dB. Compare its effectiveness in high-contrast environments to one with 80 dB.

💡 Hint: Think about how many levels of light each dynamic range captures.
