Non-Linear Analog-to-Digital Converter.
Abstract
An apparatus for producing non-linear amplitude quantization of an analog voltage signal. The device is comprised of an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter including a plurality of comparator networks each having one of their inputs tied to the analog input voltage. The other input to each of the comparator networks is derived from a voltage divider network comprised of a plurality of serially connected resistors. Each of the resistors in the voltage divider has a different value of resistance such that the output of the A/D converter has a transfer characteristic that is matched to that of the output device associated therewith.
