Analogue to digital converter (pulse)

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-000543

An electronic device that transforms a continuous analog electrical signal, such as a voltage pulse, into a discrete digital representation. This conversion allows for the processing, storage, and display of analog information by digital systems. The resolution of the converter is often expressed in bits, indicating the number of discrete levels it can distinguish.
