  • Abstract
    A system-level model for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is described. The main functions of the ADC are identified, then mapped into functional units to give a holistic view of the ADC´s behavior and more importantly, what the critical parameters are, and the main sources of errors. A trade off between high and low abstraction level is taken into consideration. The model is independent from a particular physical implementation.
