  • Low-power design techniques for low-voltage analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Kim, Min Gyu
    Abstract:
    The demand for portable electronic systems and the continued down-scaling of device dimensions resulted in rapid improvement in the performance of integrated systems. Several low-voltage design techniques have been proposed to operate analog circuits with sub-1V supply. However, these techniques require higher power consumption to achieve large dynamic range while...

  • Digital Friendly Continuous-Time Delta-Sigma Analog-to-Digital Converters

    Creator:
    Maghami, Hamidreza
    Abstract:
    Conventional Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) utilize operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) in their loop filter implementation followed by multi-bit voltage domain quantizers. As CMOS integrated circuit technology scales to smaller geometries, the minimum transistor length and the intrinsic gain of the transistors decrease. Moreover, with process scaling the voltage headroom decreases...

  • Adaptive, wideband analog-to-digital conversion for convergent communication systems

    Creator:
    Batten, Robert D., 1973-
    Abstract:
    The exponential rate of advances in modern communication devices in the last several years have brought us higher levels of functionality and performance as well as reductions in physical size and power consumption. To continue this rate of advancement, next generation systems require wider bandwidth and higher resolution ADCs. Additionally,...

  • Compensation techniques for cascaded delta-sigma A/D converters and high-performance switched-capacitor circuits

    Creator:
    Sun, Tao
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes compensation techniques for cascaded delta-sigma A/D converters (ADCs) and high-performance switched-capacitor (SC) circuits. Various correlated-double-sampling (CDS) techniques are presented to reduce the effects of the nonidealities, such as clock feedthrough, charge injection, opamp input-referred noise and offset, and finite opamp gain, in SC circuits. A CDS technique...

  • Space time coding in MIMO systems

    Creator:
    Xian, Liang
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology is promising for high-speed wireless communications without increasing the transmission band- width. Space time coding (STC) is a scheme that employs multiple antennas to increase transmission rate or to improve transmission quality. STC is used widely in mobile cellular networks, wireless local area networks (WLAN)...

  • Micropower incremental analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Chen, Chia-Hung
    Abstract:
    Incremental ADCs (IADCs) have many advantages for low-frequency high-accuracy data conversion—they are easy to multiplex between channels, need simpler digital decimation filter, and allow extended counting with a Nyquist-rate ADC. A single-loop incremental ADC was designed and fabricated in 90 nm for a biosensor interface circuit. It incorporates one integrator,...
