A low-pass anti-aliasing filter is placed before an ADC mainly to?

  • ALimit input bandwidth before sampling
  • BIncrease aliasing
  • CConvert digital data to analog
  • DGenerate quantization levels
Report an error
Correct Answer: A. Limit input bandwidth before sampling
Explanation: The filter attenuates frequency components that could fold into the sampled baseband and cause aliasing.
