E1DA Cosmos ADC

[IVX]

Guys, I don't want to repeat that I see nothing interesting in the entire idea of cascading ADCs, and especially cascading DACs(100.00% nonsense). The Stitcher is a purely DIY thing with no practical or commercial purpose. The only reason I made that is to explore how it will, in fact, work when implemented in the simplest way. And it works with inaudible artifacts to me.

I certainly would agree that cascaded DACs don't offer significant benefits and are quite an effort to realize as the stitching is happening in the analog domain.

But stacked ADCs are relatively easy to implement and offer a very effective means to avoid headroom vs noise floor issues in the real world and thus are now implemented more and more in many devices (as most patents have expired).

I agree, it's a nice toy to explore.

And, as you say, the artifacts are inaudible.

But if I ever have a microphone with DR >130dB , maybe I'll use it.

Just for the FUN .
