Nine Often Overlooked ADC Specifications
(pdf, 445 kB)
Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have many specifications; some are more important for a given application than others. Understanding these specifications and controlling external devices affecting the ADC will lead to better performance. - Reduce Noise and Power Levels with Precision Data Acquisition Solution

Analog Filter Wizard 2.0
The Analog Filter Wizard™ helps you design a low-pass, high-pass, band-pass or band-stop filter with actual op amps. It then simulates the filter’s performance with these op amps in real time. You can ask the tool to optimize for power, noise, or voltage range, and it will pick op amps and passive components appropriately. Or you can adjust the components manually yourself.

Voltage Reference Wizard (downloadable)
This Wizard helps you select the most suitable voltage for a use with a data converter. Supply the Wizard with a given data converter; it will provide you with a number of suitable references plus the maximum DC error contributed to your overall system. Or enter the amount of DC error your system can tolerate and find out which of ADI’s reference and data converter pairs will meet your requirement.
