Scaling ADC Architectures for Mobile & Multimedia SoCs at 28-nm & Beyond
نویسنده
چکیده
Manuel Mota Technical Marketing Manager, Synopsys Introduction Modern systems-on-chips (SoCs) are typically implemented in the most advanced process nodes available to take advantage of the smaller and faster properties of that process. This trend has allowed SoC architects to effectively address end users’ expectations that each new product generation will offer higher functionality and performance, lower power and, hopefully, lower cost.

CMOS Scaling from 28nm to 10nm Through High Mobility Channel Engineering – Challenges & Solutions
As the expiration of Moore’s Law heaves into sight, the primary motivations driving the scaling of semiconductor technology have changed. Cost and performance can no longer be assumed to benefit from scaling; the focus is now on devices for complex mobile applications that reduce power leakage without sacrificing performance. The obvious gains have already been won; further progress will requir...
متن کاملTime-Mode Signal Quantization for Use in Sigma-Delta Modulators
The rapid scaling in modern CMOS technology has motivated the researchers to design new analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architectures that can properly work in lower supply voltage. An exchanging the data quantization procedure from the amplitude to the time domain, can be a promising alternative well adapt with the technology scaling. This paper is going to review the recent development in t...

متن کاملA 6 bit, 7 mW, 700 MS/s Subranging ADC Using CDAC and Gate-Weighted Interpolation
A 6-bit, 7 mW, 700 MS/s subranging ADC using Capacitive DAC (CDAC) and gate-weighted interpolation fabricated in 90 nm CMOS technology is demonstrated. CDACs are used as a reference selection circuit instead of resistive DACs (RDAC) for reducing settling time and power dissipation. A gate-weighted interpolation scheme is also incorporated to the comparators, to reduce the circuit components, po...
