Very Fast High Dynamic Range Analog to Digital Converter, ADC

Analog to Digital Converters, ADC, provide digital representations of analog voltages/power for digital signal processing and control circuitry.

As sampling rates increase, problems of temperature drift, noise, aperture uncertainty and many more factors are exacerbated. Around 1978 a very bright Engineering Technician ( Bob ), conceived a design using flash ADCs and Digital to Analog Converters, DAC,

Vibratory Cavitation Piston Pumps

Introduction

The vibratory cavitation piston pumps (VCPP) are intended for moving and spraying solutions and aggressive liquids.

It is remarkably that the VCPP technology was opened, studied and patented in the USSR more than 30 years ago by Grigori Lishanski, PhD. A number of vibrating pumps were registered as “vibrating pumps of Lishanski.
