What is sample and hold effect?

In electronics, a sample and hold (also known as sample and follow) circuit is an analog device that samples (captures, takes) the voltage of a continuously varying analog signal and holds (locks, freezes) its value at a constant level for a specified minimum period of time.

What is the need of sample and hold circuit in a D converter?

These are essential for minimizing voltage skew errors during the analog-to-digital conversion process as they hold the input voltage to the ADC constant during the conversion.

What is sample and hold in ADC?

Sample and Hold is a circuit that is used to take a changing analog signal and literally hold it so that a following circuit or system such as an ADC, (Analog to Digital Converter) has the necessary time it needs to process it. At its simplest, a sample and hold circuit is a capacitor and a switch.

What is sampling in DAC?

Sampling theory makes it possible to describe a DAC's output signal in the time and frequency domains. Figure 3 shows the output signal for a DAC. Here, this is a sequence of rectangle pulses, the amplitude of which matches the corresponding digital value.
