  • Design techniques for VCO based digital sensor readout circuits

    Creator:
    Prabha, Praveen
    Abstract:
    Sensors find a variety of applications in portable electronics, automotive and biomedical solutions. The demand for low power and high dynamic range makes the design of digital sensor readout circuits quite challenging. Traditionally, these circuits are realized using amplifiers with passive feedback or precision analog comparators which are power hungry...

  • Design techniques for delta sigma modulators using VCO based ADCs

    Creator:
    Reddy, Karthikeyan
    Abstract:
    VCO-based ADCs have recently emerged as attractive alternative to conventional DeltaSigma (ΔΣ) modulator architectures. Few salient features of a VCObased ADC are: 1) the quantization noise is 1st order noise shaped, 2) it is an open loop architecture, and, 3) its implementation is mostly digital in nature. Hence, they are...

  • Time-based noise-shaping techniques for time-to-digital and analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Young, Brian LeRoy
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, time-based signal processing techniques and their applications in oversampling and noise-shaping data converters are examined. These techniques demonstrate the ability to shift the burden of high performance analog circuits from the compressed voltage-domain to the augmented time-domain. First, the potential of high order noise-shaping and phase-domain feedback...

  • Design techniques for wideband low-power Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Wang, Yan
    Abstract:
    Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are traditionally used in high quality audio systems, instrumentation and measurement (I&M) and biomedical devices. With the continued downscaling of CMOS technology, they are becoming popular in wideband applications such as wireless and wired communication systems,high-definition television and radar systems. There are two general realizations...

  • Digitally assisted control techniques for high performance switching DC-DC converters

    Creator:
    Khan, Qadeer Ahmad
    Abstract:
    Digitally controlled switching DC-DC converters have recently emerged as an attractive alternative to conventional switching converters based on analog control techniques. This research focuses on eliminating the issues associated with the state of the art switching converters by proposing three novel control techniques: (1) a digitally controlled Buck-Boost converter uses...

  • Design techniques for high efficiency LED drivers

    Creator:
    Bang, Sarvesh Jagdish
    Abstract:
    The increasing popularity of cellular phones with integrated cameras in the recent past has led to major improvements in its image quality. However, integration of new features, such as mobile email, video streaming, MP3 etc. tend to put the limitation on image quality as camera phone designers struggle to manage...
