This paper presents a flexible SAR ADC in 90nm CMOS for wireless sensor nodes. By supporting resolutions from 7 to 10bit and sample rates from DC to 2MS/s, this design can be used for a variety of applications such as sensor interfacing and receiver frontends. Flexibility is achieved by a reconfigurable comparator and a reconfigurable DAC. Compared to prior art, this work substantially improves power-efficiency...
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...
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...
3D contactless technology based on capacitive coupling represents a promising solution for high-speed and low power signaling in vertically integrated chips. AC coupled interconnects do not suffer from mechanical stress, and the parasitic load is much reduced when compared to standard DC solutions, such as wire bonding and micro bumps. Communication system based on wireless interconnection scheme...
In this paper, a 12-bit 50MHz Pipelined Low-Voltage ADC is presented, which consists of 8-stage-pipelined low resolution ADCs and a 4-bit flash ADC. Several critical technologies are used to guarantee the resolution and high sampling and converting rate such as 1.5bits per stage conversion, digital correction logic, gain-boosted telescopic OTA and so on. Finally the whole system is taped out in SMIC...
