Bottom halves in the Linux kernel

Hi, on Interrupt priority level you wrote:

Similar to this are "bottom halves" and their successors in the Linux kernel.

What are these successors you write about? I am not able to google what, if anything, have succeed bottom halves in the Linux kernel? --Bjarkef (talk) 14:19, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Oversampling

On oversampling you wrote:

It is a cheaper way of achieving higher-resolution A/D and D/A conversion. For instance, to implement a 24-bit converter, it is sufficient to use a 20-bit converter that can run at 16 times the target sampling rate. Averaging a group of 16 consecutive 20-bit samples adds 4 bits to the resolution of the average, producing a single sample with 24-bit resolution.

While intuitively it makes sense, I'm curious if you have a reference to a formal proof or something? Just satisfying my curiosity. :) Cburnett 19:41, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

It's probably worth explaining this in more detail. In the meantime, the best I can do is refer you to the Watkinson book. In the edition I have (2nd), oversampling is explained in great detail from page 147 onwards. Ldo 09:54, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
