Electromagnetic radiation and B fields in EMR are in-phase (see math section below). An important aspect of light's nature is its frequency. The frequency of a wave is its rate of oscillation and is measured in hertz, the SI unit of frequency, where one hertz is equal to one oscillation per second. Light usually has multiple frequencies that sum to form the resultant wave. Different frequencies undergo different angles of refraction, a phenomenon known as dispersion. A wave consists of successive troughs and crests, and the distance between two adjacent crests or troughs is called the wavelength. Waves of the electromagnetic spectrum
Successive approximation ADC in conjunction with a comparator internal to the DAC and the successive approximation register. When implemented as an analog circuit – where the value of each successive bit is not perfectly 2 (e.g. 1.1, 2.12, 4.05, 8.01, etc.) – a successive approximation approach might not output the ideal value because the binary search algorithm incorrectly removes what it believes to be half of the values the unknown input cannot be. Depending on the difference between actual and ideal performance, the maximum error can easily exceed several LSBs, especially as the error between the actual and ideal 2becomes large for one
