Description

May 1, 2018

The video introduces the difference between quantization noise and thermal noise. Specifically, it explains which converter systems will be dominated by thermal noise and which are dominated by quantization noise. Also, it provides insight into how these noise sources can be reduced by adjusting the reference voltage.
