ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for enhancing the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter. The method uses the addition of a second analog waveform to a first analog signal which is to be converted. When the composite signal is converted to digital form, this enhances the effective resolution of the A/D converter with respect to the first signal. Integration of the composite digital signal causes the effects of the second waveform to average to zero. The result is an enhanced resolution signal without undesired effects of the added second signal.
