In many DSP applications (image and voice processing, baseband symbol decoding in high quality communication channels) several dBs of SNR loss can be tolerated without noticeable impact on system level performance. For power optimization in such applications, voltage overscaling can be used to operate the arithmetic circuitry slower than the critical circuit path delay while incurring tolerable SNR...
While the CMOS analog circuits can be designed with the minimum-gate-length of the fabrication process in the alpha-power law MOSFET model, the length of a MOSFET gate has been chosen to be a larger scale than the minimum-gate-length in the conventional Shockleypsilas square model. In this paper, we describe a 6-b 100 MSPS CMOS current steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) with the alpha-power...
Current mode (CM) scheme provides suitable alternative for the high speed on-chip interconnect signaling. This paper presents a energy-delay optimization methodology for the current-mode (CM) signaling scheme. Optimization for the CM circuits for on-chip interconnects requires a joint optimization of driver and receiver device sizes, as their parameters which affect the energy-delay performance depend...
This paper describes a comparative analysis between two topologies of operational amplifiers to design a 40 MS/s 12-bit pipeline analog to digital converter (ADC). The analysis includes AC and transient simulation to select the proper topology. This ADC is implemented in a 0.35 mum AMS CMOS technology with 3.3 V single power supply. The capacitors and selected operational amplifiers were scaled for...
