10/12-bit SAR ADC

Overview

The SAR ADC IP is a small-size, low power analog to digital converter which leverages charge-redistribution successive approximation technology. It offers a reliable solution of analog-to-digital signal conversion for general application.

The SAR ADC IP consists of input MUX, ADC core, and digital logic. The input MUX selects the analog signal to be converted from input channels. The ADC core converts the selected analog signal to its digital counterpart. The digital logic controls the ADC operation.
