I have a customer who asked the following question:
I want to know if the part is a mid tread or mid riser quantizer?
Can you answer this question in detail so that I can send the result to my customer? I am not sure what this actually means.
Thanks for your help with this!

Hi Richard
The definition of midtread and midrise quantizers is included here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(signal_processing)
Visual representations of Midtread and Midrise quantizers are shown in the diagram below:
The ADC12D1600 transfer function is shown in Figure 8 of the product datasheet.
Since the mid-code values of 2047 and 2048 are slightly above and below the 0V input level, this device is a midrise quantizer.
Best regards,
Jim B
