I just saw an announcement for a new 32 bit ADC.

Unfortunately, in full tilt, highest accuracy mode, it only appears to have
about 7 Hz of bandwidth. Maybe in the next version...

Yeah right! You need liquid nitrogen cooling to get to a real 24 bits
full band on the analog side. Fortunately 20 bits is more than enough
for audio anyway.

I believe that this is the chip that Bob Pease was working on when he died.
It's a nice demonstration about the whole sigma-delta miracle where you can
trade bandwidth for resolution freely.
