Questions: 1. An analog signal having a 0 – 10 V range is to be converted into an 8 bit digital word. What is the resolution of the conversion in volts? What is the straight binary digital representation of 6 V.? What is the error made in quantizing 6.2 V in absolute terms and as a percent of the input and as a percent of full scale? What is the largest possible quantization error as a percent of full scale? 2. If the input bias current of an op-amp used as the output summer in a 10 bit DAC, is to be no more than the equivalent of 1/4 LSB, what is the maximum current required to flow in Rf for an op-amp whose bias current is a great as .5 µA? See circuit shown below.
