It is clearly visible that the output of the counter type digital to analog converter increases until it reaches the input voltage. As it crosses the magnitude of the input voltage, the counter resets and the next conversion begins. The green bar determines the time taken by the analog to digital converter for one conversion. We can also see that the part where the input voltage is increased, the conversion time has also increased.

It is the time taken by the analog to digital converter to completely transform the analog input to digital output. The general formula of the maximum conversion time is Tc(max) = (2^N-1)Tclk There's a lot of good info and advice on indoor antennas on that you might find helpful.Where N is the number of bits of analog to digital converter and Tclk is the duration of the clock pulse. Unfortunately, a lot of folks buy those, because they are easy to find in local stores. If there will be few or no high-VHF stations in your area, you'd be better off with a good UHF-only antenna.Ī loop and rabbit ears combo - amplified or not - will not be the best antenna choice for a lot of viewers. Look at the post-transition charts for your market. Just an opinion based on experience of myself and several friends. I think the high noise figure amplifier circuits in them can hurt DTV reception more than they help.

Personally, I don't recommend the common amplified indoor antennas to my friends. In my case, I may need to move it a few more inches to bring in station yyyy. I find that moving my antenna just a few inches can make the difference between receiving station xxxx vs. For DTV reception, indoor antenna location and orientation can make all the difference. You might need to get a longer length of coax so that you can move your indoor antenna off the TV and around the room to find the best spot for reception (try near a window that faces the direction of the transmitters, if possible). I've compared the CM-7000 to my DTT901 and found that it did no better than the Zenith in holding the stations in a heavy multipath environment. In my case, multipath due to nearby buildings is the biggest issue. I live ~40 miles from the local transmitters, and really struggle with an indoor antenna. You didn't tell us where you live with respect to the transmitters.
