adc

Recently I was looking for a cheap ADC and found a generic, unbranded one on eBay for just under 10$ (UPC: 6927373037416). Here's a few pictures of the device: My plan was to use an ADC to connect my turntable to a digital input of miniDSP OpenDRC-DI, but I didn't really want to spend much on...

I recently treated myself with a Sony PCM-D100. The price was just too good. Here is a quick ADC Line In comparison with my Olympus LS-11. The measurements were done in REW V5.20 RC8b with a Motu M4 using the unbalanced monitor output (Output 1 RCA) which was connected to the Topping L30 so...

So, earlier today, I encountered a really catastrophic issue regarding my unconventional stereo system. I connected my Victorola TT (https://www.amazon.com/Victrola-Bluetooth-Suitcase-Turntable-Speakers/dp/B00UMVW4VA) to a phono pre-amp...

This started out innocuously enough in a post around these parts, now it has become a fairly comprehensive overview of high-end and midrange converter chips with some performance figures from the '90s into the present day, and even a few links to papers and the like are included along with some...

Hello! I’m Laszlo, from Spain. I had spent a week searching for an ADC. I need to transform the analog output of my mixer (XLR) to optical, to record it in an Apollo X Quad, without using the analog inputs. All I had found is the typical 20$ rca to spdif converter, and I would like to have...

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Roland UA-22 Duo-Capture Ex USB Audio Interface (DAC/ADC). I bought it in the year 2015 as a small interface to make 2-channel microphone recordings in the field. The Duo-Capture costed about US $140. Duo-Capture has 2 balanced inputs, XLR/TRS...

Given that the MiniDSP SHD and the RME ADI-2 Pro fs both use the same AKM chips, have similar specs, and in Amir's DAC testing showed very similar performance, is it safe to assume that the ADC performance of the MiniDSP SHD is likely to have a SINAD within a few dB of the RME ADI-2 Pro fs? I...

I read the following sentence in this The Scientist and Engineer's Guide to Digital Signal Processing By Steven W. Smith which talks about ADC & DACs. "For example, suppose that the ones and zeros are represented by 5 volts and 0 volts, respectively. If 80% of the bits in the data stream are...
