Consider the following Analog to Digital Converters: Counter type ADC: A Dual slope ADC: B SAR type ADC: C Flash ADC: D The correct order of conversion time (T) of the ADCs shown above is:
Consider the following Analog to Digital Converters: Counter type ADC: A Dual slope ADC: B SAR type ADC: C Flash ADC: D The correct order of conversion time (T) of the ADCs shown above is: Correct Answer T<sub>D </sub>< T<sub>C</sub>< T<sub>A</sub>< T<sub>B</sub>
For n-bit conversion, the conversion time for different ADC are:
Counter type ADC: (2n – 1) Tclk
Successive approx. time ADC: n Tclk
Flash type ADC: Tclk
Dual slope ADC: (2n+1 – 1) Tclk
The successive approximation A/D converter has a shorter conversion time compared to the counter ramp A/D converter, i.e the correct sequence will be: TD < TC< TA< TB

- Counter type ADC and successive approximate ADC uses DAC
- Counter type ADC uses linear search and successive approximation type ADC uses binary search
- A ring counter is used in successive approximation type ADC
- Flash type ADC is fastest ADC
- Flash type ADC requires no counter
- For an n-bit ADC, flash type ADC requires (2n – 1) comparators
- Dual slope ADC is most accurate
