Steve,
I wonder if you have any info on something I was reading in Bob
Katz's book recently, that many A/D converters actually have compressors
or other sorts of non-linear circuits built into them which effect the
use of the converter when it gets anywhere near maximum value anyway.
I found some of his comments about what happens with A/D's in these
regions interesting. Do the spec sheets you've looked at imply anything
like this?
They might have but I dont remeber, you can find the spec sheets by
googling for the part numbers.
Thats interesting information. I wonder how consistent the compression is.
