  • High-performance Ring Amplifier based Analog-to-Digital Converters

    Creator:
    Hu, Hang
    Abstract:
    Ring Amplifier serves as a great candidate both for precision amplification and fast integration in the discrete time system. It can be utilized in high-performance analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In high-speed ADC utilizing pipelined architectures with residue amplification, Successive-Approximation Register (SAR) ADCs as the sub-ADC and power efficient Ring Amplifier based...

  • Single-Ended Techniques for Delta-Sigma Modulators

    Creator:
    Lee, Calvin Y.
    Abstract:
    This work presents a high-resolution Delta-Sigma ADC which combines the use of the pseudo-pseudo-differential noise filtering technique with single-ended ring amplifier based integrators. The pseudo-pseudo-differential noise filtering technique utilizes single-ended circuits while maintaining the even-order rejection found in fully-differential structures which alleviates, in the active analog blocks, the need for...

  • Active Noise Shaping Analog-to-Digital Data Converters

    Creator:
    Shi, Lukang
    Abstract:
    Successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters are popular for medium accuracy, medium speed and low power applications, such as in biomedical applications. They have low latency and simple architecture compared with ΔΣ ADCs. This is because of SAR ADCs’ binary searching scheme. Furthermore, SAR ADCs can apply oversampling and noise shaping schemes...

  • Ring Amplifier Optimized for High Resolution Analog-to-Digital Converter Applications

    Creator:
    ElShater, Ahmed O.
    Abstract:
    In recent years, SAR ADCs have been shown to acheive faster conversion times and improved power efficiencies due to their simple building blocks that are digital in nature and scale favorably with technology. High resolution ADCs with stringent noise requirement has led to the adoption of hybrid ADC architectures such...

  • A 1V 40mA Fast Transient Capless LDO with 7uA Quiescent Current in 180nm CMOS using Ring Amplifier with Adaptive Damping

    Creator:
    Xiao, Bohui
    Abstract:
    Ring amplification has emerged as an efficient technique to drive large capacitive loads in switched capacitor circuits. We propose circuit techniques to demonstrate the first application of a ring amplifier in a non-capacitive feedback system of a LDO. These techniques enable a simple cap-less LDO structure in 180nm CMOS that...

  • Power-Efficient Design Techniques and Architectures for Scalable Submicron Analog Circuits

    Creator:
    Xu, Yang
    Abstract:
    As the CMOS process scales down to submicron, digital circuit performance improves, while reduced supply voltage and lower transistor intrinsic gain make it difficult to implement analog circuits in a power efficient manner. Therefore, it has become advantageous to shift more analog signal processing functions conventionally realized in voltage (analog)...

  • A Wide Modulation Range and PVT-Tolerant Spread-Spectrum Modulation Clock Generator

    Creator:
    Sun, Hyuk
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a phase domain in-loop-bandwidth spread-spectrum clock generation technique. In this proposed technique, a charge-based discrete-time loop filter is proposed to enable the phase domain in-loop-bandwidth spread-spectrum modulation without a delta-sigma modulator or time-to-digital converter. The in-loop-bandwidth modulation technique maximizes the loop bandwidth to improve phase noise suppression...

  • Limitations and optimization of a blind calibration algorithm for nonlinearity in analog to digital converters

    Creator:
    Coker, Brandilyn
    Abstract:
    Analog to digital converters (ADCs) are a critical part of communication between the physical world and the increasingly digital systems humans use every day. ADCs have inherent non-idealities that degrade performance. Nonlinearity is one of the most prevalent non-idealities that designers face. While calibration methods for nonlinearity exist in the...
