10.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
Use the following steps to design a typical data acquistion system:
- Use the signal center frequency and signal bandwidth to select an appropriate ADC sampling frequency.
- Use the transducer or sensor noise level and maximum input signal amplitude to select appropriate pre-driver amplifiers.
- Select appropriate low jitter clock for the ADC.
- Determine whether to use the on-chip digital filters or decimation filters based on required SNR and pass band shaping.
