ADC
Military staff officer
ADC is an abbreviation with several specialized meanings.
In electronics, it stands for analog-to-digital converter—a device that transforms continuous signals into digital data.
In gaming, particularly League of Legends and similar titles, ADC means attack damage carry, a role focused on dealing sustained physical damage: Our ADC needs more protection in team fights.
In military and government contexts, ADC can mean aide-de-camp, a personal assistant to a senior officer.
