  1. 6. Design of a Low Power Cyclic/Algorithmic Analog-to-Digital Converter in a 130nm CMOS Process

    University essay from Elektroniksystem; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Ajith kumar Puppala; [2012]
    Keywords : Redundant Signed Digit; Correlated level Shifting; Low power; High Speed; Folded cascode;

    Abstract : Analog-to-digital converters are inevitable in the modern communication systems and there is always a need for the design of low-power converters. There are different A/D architectures to achieve medium resolution at medium speeds and among all those Cyclic/Algorithmic structure stands out due to its low hardware complexity and less die area costs.

  2. 7. High-Speed Hybrid Current mode Sigma-Delta Modulator

    University essay from Elektroniksystem; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Balakumaar Baskaran; Hari Shankar Elumalai; [2012]
    Keywords : Current mode Sigma Delta Modulator; Leslie-Singh Architecture; Switched Current Integrator; Folded Cascode Integrator; Current mode Flash ADC; High Speed Latched Comparator; Cascode Current Mirrors;

    Abstract : The majority of signals, that need to be processed, are analog, which are continuous and can take an infinite number of values at any time instant. Precision of the analog signals are limited due to influence of distortion which leads to the use of digital signals for better performance and cost. READ MORE

  3. 8. Investigation of 60 GHz Radio Front-ends in Nanometer CMOS

    University essay from KTH/Integrerade komponenter och kretsar

    Author : Sha Tao; [2009]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the past few years, silicon mm-wave, especially 60GHz CMOS design has experienced a transition from an obscure topic to a research hot spot. The focus of this thesis is the design of a 60GHz receiver front-end integrated circuit, together with device modeling solutions, using 65nm CMOS technology. READ MORE

  4. 9. On the Design of an Analog Front-End for an X-Ray Detector

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Farooq ul Amin; [2009]
    Keywords : Readout Electronics; CMOS Analog Front-End; Low Power; Low Noise; Charge Sensitive Amplifier CSA ; Gm-C Filter; Pole-Zero cancellation circuit;

    Abstract : Rapid development in CMOS technology has resulted in its suitability for the implementation of readout front-end systems in terms of high integration density, and low power consumption yet at the same time posing many challenges for analog circuits design like readout front-end. One of the significant challenges is the low noise design for high speed front-end systems, while at the same time minimizing the power consumption as much as possible. READ MORE

  5. 10. Design of microwave low-noise amplifiers in a SiGe BiCMOS process

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Martin Hansson; [2003]
    Keywords : Electronics; LNA; low-noise; amplifiers; SiGe; BiCMOS; microwave; MMIC; RFIC; Elektronik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, three different types of low-noise amplifiers (LNA’s) have been designed using a 0.25 mm SiGe BiCMOS process. Firstly, a single-stage amplifier has been designed with 11 dB gain and 3.7 dB noise figure at 8 GHz. READ MORE
