The easy-to-use successive-approximation analog-to-digital converters (SAR-ADCs) may not be as easy as you think. In my last article for EDN, “Simulating the front end of your ADC,” we talked about ...

[Igor] made a VU meter with LEDs using 8 LEDs and 8 comparators. This is a fast way to get one of 8 bits to indicate an input voltage, but that’s only the equivalent of a 3-bit analog to digital ...

Energy-efficient successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) represent a rapidly evolving field in microelectronics, where substantial progress has been made in ...

When it comes to getting signals from an analog world into our computers, most of us don’t give much thought to how the hardware that does the job works. But as it turns out, there are a number of ...

The current technology trend for Analog-to- Digital Converters (ADCs) is particularly keen on power reduction, together with high-speed performance. The goal of the paper is to demonstrate that both ...

The ATLAS Experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider required the design of a custom ADC. The ADC developed for this application is a dual-channel 12-bit ADC test chip, in which each channel ...

提出一种单通道8位时间域ADC，采用选择先行SAR TDC架构，通过单参考延迟路径设计消除输入相关误差，并显著提升抗冒险容限，在28nm CMOS下实现6GS/s Nyquist速率输入时36.4dB SNDR，功耗51mW。 摘要： 本文介绍了一种单通道8位时域模数转换器（TD-ADC），该转换器采用了 ...

A successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) with a switched-capacitor programmable gain switched preamplifier (SC PGSA), as a basic component of an integrated ultra-low ...

Successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are commonly used in applications which require medium to high resolution. The major benefits of SAR ADCs are high ...

Electronic Design is dedicated to keeping design engineers informed of the latest advancements in the engineering community. As such, we thought you would have interest in these resources from Mentor ...
