Abstract :
An undergraduate course in SP doesn´t usually teach analog to digital converters. We think that the concepts involved in SD converters are not only appropriate for senior students, but also a way of developing SP skills when it is assisted by a laboratory assignment. For that purpose we will show how this task can be done and we will highlight its advantages according to the results we were able to measure from student´s reports
