11.12 Protecting Delta-Sigma ADC: Special Input Range

Previous Next

Description

March 8, 2022

This video covers a new case study that looks at an ADC with a special input range and associated ESD protection structure. In this case, the internal ESD protection diode is not a traditional ESD diode. The protection is implemented with signal diodes, a Schottky diode, and a TVS diode.
