PRODMIX
The ADC supports both 16-bit and 32-bit output resolutions when using decimation. The 32-bit output resolution is recommended for higher decimation factors (decimation by 16 real/by 32 complex and higher) to avoid SNR degradation due to quantization noise limitation as shown in Table 8-13.
The output resolution can be changed with SPI register write in register 0x162.
Baseline SNR (dBFS) | Real Decimation | SNR with 3dB per /2 (dBFS) | SNR with 16-bit output resolution (dBFS) | SNR with 32-bit output resolution (dBFS) |
---|---|---|---|---|
74 | /16 | 86.0 | 85.8 | 86.0 |
74 | /32 | 89.1 | 88.5 | 89.1 |
74 | /256 | 98.1 | 95.1 | 98.1 |
74 | /32768 | 119.1 | 98.0 | 119.1 |
