The simplified block diagram of a 10-bi t A/D converter of dual slope integrator type is shown in the given figure. The 10-bit counter at the output is clocked by a 1 MHz clock. Assuming negligible timing overhead for the control logic, the maximum frequency of the analog signal that can be converted using this A/D converter is approximately _________kHz

Correct Option: A
The waveform for dual slope integrater is shown. Maximum frequency can be at tained when
T2 – T1 = 0 and, as T1 = 2N TC (TC = clockperiod)
∴ fMax = | = | = | ≈ 1 kHz | |||
2N.TC | 2N | 1024 |
