Abstract
A method including receiving an output signal from a sensor array, providing power to the sensor array and to the first analog-to-digital converter, generating a plurality of clock signals that are synchronous with a primary clock signal, providing a first clock signal of the plurality to the first analog-to-digital converter and providing a second clock signal of the plurality to the first switcher. The first clock signal is asynchronous with the second clock signal.
Claims12
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a first analog-to-digital converter, an output signal from a sensor array;
- providing power, with a first switcher, to the sensor array and to the first analog-to-digital converter;
- generating a plurality of clock signals that are synchronous with a primary clock signal;
- and
- providing a first clock signal of the plurality to the first analog-to-digital converter and providing a second clock signal of the plurality to the first switcher, the first clock signal is asynchronous with the second clock signal.
