Abstract:Two frequency-translating hybrid analog-todigital converters (FTH-ADCs) are implemented using building blocks that are designed and fabricated in a 90-nm CMOS technology. These blocks include a mixer, a filter, and an ADC that are cascaded to build each analog processing path of the FTH-ADC. The mixer-filter path is designed with sufficient linearity and signal-to-noise-anddistortion ratio (SNDR) to accommodate for the desired resolution of the path ADC. A 4-bit flash ADC structure is used in each path. This p… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
