Topic: Digital Circuits
10 bit A/D converters, the quantization error is given by (in percent)
- A. 1
- B. 2
- C. 0.1
- D. 0.2
Answer: C. 0.1
Explanation: For an n-bit ADC, the maximum percentage resolution (which dictates quantization step) is roughly (1 / 2^n) * 100%. For n=10, 2^10 = 1024. Therefore, the resolution/error is approximately (1 / 1024) * 100% ≈ 0.1%.
