Study Notes
Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)
- An ADC converts analog signals to digital signals that can be processed by digital circuits and computers.
- The digital output of an ADC is typically represented as a binary code.
Implementation of ADCs
- Most ADCs are implemented as integrated circuits (ICs) due to their compact size, low power consumption, and high speed.
Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC)
- A DAC converts digital signals to analog signals.
Structures in C
Defining a Union in C
- A union is a special data type that allows storing different types of data in the same memory location.
- Defining a union in C differs from defining a structure in that a union uses the same memory location for all members, whereas a structure allocates separate memory for each member.
The Struct Statement in C
- The struct statement defines a new data type that allows combining multiple variables of different data types into a single unit.
Advantages of Unions in C
- The primary advantage of using unions in C is efficient memory utilization, as they can store different types of data in the same memory location.
