ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERSION TECHNIQUES FOR APPLICATION IN DIGITAL CONTROL SYSTEMS.

Abstract

This thesis is primarily concerned with a comparative study of analog-to-digital conversion techniques as currently available. Those discussed and evaluated are of the electromechanical and electronic types including coded patterns, incremental devices, simultaneous feedback encoding, and time base conversion. In addition to the study of converter techniques and characteristics the last section is devoted to a practical application for a turbine engine fuel control system. Numerous tables and charts for purposes of comparison are included. (Author)
