What Is Data Conversion in Electronic Test Tools?<\/h2><\/div>

\"oscilloscopes\"Different electronic tools have different output signals and to get a mutual understanding of what it all means, I present data conversion. Data conversion is the process of converting data from one format to another.<\/p>\n

Having a good data conversion tool<\/a> is essential, since problems can arise such as file corruption, incorrect data, and portions of deleted data.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Data Conversion Electronic Test Tool Examples<\/h2><\/div>

Data conversion comes from many different tools along with different data conversion forms. Here are some examples of data conversion.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Data Converters<\/h3><\/div>

Data converters are the piece of hardware that does the actual data conversion, by reading and altering the data from the original format to the new one.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Analog to Digital Converters (ADC)<\/h4><\/div>

An analog to digital converter changes data from physical data into digital data. Waveforms are a form of analog data, a form of digital data is binary code.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Digital to Analog Converters (DAC)<\/h4><\/div>

Digital to analog converters change digital data into analog data. An example of digital data conversion to analog<\/a> is a modem, as it converts digital data to audio frequency so it can transmit over phone lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Direct Digital Frequency Synthesizer (DDFS)<\/h4><\/div>

\"personA direct digital synthesizer produces an analog waveform, through a digital to analog data conversion.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Track and Hold (T\/H)<\/h4><\/div>

Track and hold is a type of circuit that is important in data conversion. The track and hold circuit<\/a> contains a tracking switch and holding capacitor.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Differential Probes<\/h3><\/div>

Differential probes measure frequency signals<\/a> and they have a single-ended input, so they need a differential amplifier to convert the frequency into an understandable form.<\/p>\n<\/div>

What To Do Once You Have Your Data Converted<\/h2><\/div>
