Described herein is a system and method of emulating characteristics of an output signal of a first analog-to-digital converter by a second analog-to-digital converter employing signal processing. A signal processing module may receive a digital signal from the first analog-to-digital converter and alter the digital signal to define an altered digital signal such that the altered digital signal emulates a second digital signal that is characteristic of the second analog-to-digital converter, the second analog-to-digital converter differing from the first analog-to-digital converter.
