Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You have a 10-bit DAC with a full scale of 5V. What is the step voltage if all bits are set to 0? What is the output if the digital input is 512?

💡 Hint: First calculate the resolution, then use it with the digital input.

Challenge 2 Hard

An ADC has a max input voltage of 10V and can output a digital range of 0 to 2^12. If the input is 5V, what is the digital output?

💡 Hint: Work through the formula by calculating the analog value in terms of the full range.
