Sampling frequencies
The sampling frequencies of the different DAU types are shown in the table below.
Analog-to-digital converter
The analog-to-digital converter operates according to the sigma-delta principle. This method
uses a single-bit converter. A separate analog-to-digital converter is provided for each measur-
ing input to ensure that all measuring signals are processed simultaneously.
In order to avoid aliasing effects during the analog-to-digital conversion, the signal passes an
anti-aliasing filter (low-pass filter) before being digitized. This ensures that frequency compo-
nents in the signal to be sampled that exceed half of the sampling frequency will be suppressed.
Resolution
The analog measured values are sampled and converted into digital values with a resolution of
16 bit (max. 65,536 values). That means that 32,768 values and the “Null value” are possible for
each polarity. The following table contains the resolution of the A/D converter:
