ABSTRACT:
Aspects of a method and system for variable resolution data conversion in a receiver are provided. In this regard, an analog received signal may be converted to a corresponding digital signal, wherein a resolution of the corresponding digital signal may be varied (e.g., by configuring one or more switching elements) for the conversion based on one or more determined characteristics of said received signal. The resolution of the conversion may be determined based on characteristics of in-band and/or out-of-band signals. The resolution may be increased when received signal strength is below a threshold and may be decreased when received signal strength is above a threshold. Similarly, the resolution may be increased when interference is above a threshold and may be decreased when interference is below a threshold. The resolution may be increased when error rates are above a threshold and decreased when error rates are below a threshold.
