conversion rate (of an externally controlled analog-to-digital converter) (f_c)

The number of conversions per unit time.

NOTE 1 The maximum conversion rate should be specified for full resolution.

NOTE 2 The conversion rate is usually expressed as the number of conversions per second.

NOTE 3 Because of settling or recovery time, the maximum specified conversion rate is smaller than the reciprocal of the worst-case conversion time.
