ABSTRACT:
A wide dynamic range, wide bandwidth, analog-to-digital conversion system and method. A plurality of overlapped analog-to-digital converters are utilized in conjunction with scaling amplifiers to provide a plurality of output ranges. Means for selecting the set of output bits which provides a magnitude representation of the input signal are provided along with means for outputting a digital representation of the appropriate range.
