High Precision and Low Power ADCs Video

ADC designs are progressing rapidly over time in terms of architectural developments and circuit innovations. In this talk, we will focus on high-precision designs and on low-power design techniques of ADC topologies such as pipelined ADCs, Delta-Sigma modulators, and SAR (successive-approximation) ADCs. Besides discussing general challenges and solutions, some state-of-the-art ADC examples will be explained in the context of the principles outlined in this lecture, and a short review from a system integration perspective will be given.
