Working Principles

The MAX122ACNG is an analog-to-digital converter that converts continuous analog signals into discrete digital values. It utilizes a successive approximation technique to achieve high-resolution conversion. The analog input voltage is compared to a reference voltage, and the converter determines the digital representation based on this comparison. The converted digital value is then available for further processing or storage.
