A 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) has a sampling frequency of 1 MHz and a full scale voltage of 3.3 V.
For an input sinusoidal signal with frequency 500 kHz, the maximum SNR (in dB, rounded off to two decimal places) and the data rate (in Mbps) at the output of the ADC are _________, respectively.
61.96 and 10
61.96 and 5
33.36 and 10
