Homework Statement



Draw a fully labelled block diagram of a 3-bit ‘Flash Encoding’ analogue to digital converter (ADC) and explain how the device converts an analogue voltage into a 3-bit binary number.

The Attempt at a Solution



anyone know how to do this or have any sources would be great.

What are the different types of A-to-D Converters (ADCs)? Why would you use a Flash topology ADC versus the other topologies?

Read the link, read your textbook, answer my question, then sketch away.
