Hello,
I'll start by saying my understanding of A/D and D/A is just that of the operator. My technical understanding is more like that of a tech than an engineer. I can read schematics and I can interpret a decent amount of datasheet info but I understand much more about the analog realm of things than I do about the digital realm. That being said, I would like to start experimenting a bit with ADC and DAC chips. There are so many! There are entire threads about which ones certain companies use.. it's a lot to dig through. I could just look through Mouser for good specs but I would feel more confident buying some chips ( that I will probably end up breaking.. lol ) that are recommended by a fellow tinkerer or maybe by someone who has a lot of experience with them.
Do you guys have any advice for getting started?
Respectfully,
