Bob Adams, Technical Fellow at Analog Devices, Inc.

Robert Whitlock Adams is a Technical Fellow at Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) in Wilmington, Massachusetts.[1][2] His focus is on signal processing and analog-to-digital conversion for professional audio.[3] He is a leader in the development of sigma-delta converters, introducing architectural advances including mismatch shaping, multi-bit quantization, and continuous-time architectures.[4]

Adams graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Tufts University in 1976.[4] From 1977 to 1988 he worked for DBX, a professional audio recording company. There, he helped develop the industry's first audio converter with greater than 16-bit resolution, as well as one of the earliest digital audio recorders.[3] In 1988, he joined the Converter Group of Analog Devices as a Senior Staff Designer, and went on to develop ADI's first sigma-delta converters in partnership with Paul Ferguson. He produced the world's first monolithic asynchronous sample rate converters (the AD1890 family),[4] and he created ADI's sigmaDSP line of audio-specific digital signal processing cores.[3][4]

As of 1998, Adams had received 15 patents related to audio signal processing.[5]
