Successive Approximation ADC:

Successive Approximation ADC is the very common type of ADC today and it is used in many general-purpose applications.

The major components of this ADC are the comparator, Digital to Analog Converter, and Successive Approximation Register.

In this ADC, the output of the DAC is compared with the input signal (which is sampled using the sample and hold circuit) and based on the comparator output, the output of the Successive Approximation Register is changed (One bit at a time)
And the output of the SAR is given as an input to the DAC.

Conversion Time: (No . of bits of the ADC ) x (Clock Cycle)

In this ADC, the conversion time is independent of the input signal.

Advantages of SAR ADC:

1) Good Accuracy
2) Fast Conversion
3) Low Power Conversion
4) Easy to Use
5) Low Latency Time

In this video, the working of the SAR ADC is explained using the example of 4-bit ADC.

Tomorrow is my exam and the irony is that everything taught here is exactly same as my teacher's notes.(every word)..

[omi]

Thank you very much for these clear videos. You are helping tons of future engineers here!

[jrohit]

BRO, you teach better than my profs. Way better

[mikmik]

Youre on e of the best electronics channels there is

[denebvegaaltair]

I'm not dumb I just never had you as my teacher.

[bhuvnendrapratapsingh]

loved that you provided notes in the description

[utkarshkothimbire]

Thank a lot for explaning in simple language.

[petemitchell]

Man u are the best. This video is so well explained.

[leeleslie]

so good, one times watch and makes me understand, you are really my sarADC GOD

[Pranav.Suryawanshi]

Today is my exam and I watched it now how talented am I !!!

[geethakatke]

Thanks sir, your videos is very good in
Explanation and your voice is clearly listen, so without any difficulty is it easy to understand your videos.

[KamalJ]

Beautiful and easy to understand explanation... Thanks

[akhiladh]

Thank you so much for this video. It helped me for my seminar

[SebastianRamirez-jrbs]

SAR ADC explained so easily and with such detail!

[saikiransivaji]

Tomorrow is gate exam...iam learning today...thank u sir😁😁

[yashavanthakumar]

Taking example is beautiful sir thats y it is better then other vedios .
Required to change the just below the title of the words it is make better and thank u sir

[madhubellam]

Really great bro helped for my sem
Exams

[iamklevy]

thank you that was very informative & helpful bro

[PeetHobby]

Great video! Successive Approximation ADC seems to be one of the slowest ADCs, right?
