A 15-MHz, 2.7-mm2 Notch-Free Hybrid Magnetic Current Sensor With Feedforward Ripple Cancellation and ±0.8% Local Gain Non-Uniformity

A 15-MHz, 2.7-mm2 Notch-Free Hybrid Magnetic Current Sensor With Feedforward Ripple Cancellation and ±0.8% Local Gain Non-Uniformity 150 150

Abstract:

This article proposes a hybrid magnetic current sensor achieving a 15-MHz bandwidth within a compact 2.7-mm2 area. To mitigate the pole–zero mismatch inherent in the two-stage integrator topology, a dual-output Gm-C integrator with subtractor-based compensation is proposed, achieving a ±0.8% local gain non-uniformity. A wideband feedforward ripple suppression scheme cancels …

A 0.5–2.5-GS/s Resettable Ring-VCO-Based ADC Eliminating Quantization-Noise Shaping

A 0.5–2.5-GS/s Resettable Ring-VCO-Based ADC Eliminating Quantization-Noise Shaping 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a Nyquist-rate Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) operating from 0.5 to 2.5 GS/s based on an open-loop resettable ring VCO (R-RVCO). By inherently embedding the $1 {\,}-{\,}z^{-1}$ transfer function, the R-RVCO eliminates the need for an explicit differentiator, suppresses VCO phase-noise (PN) integration, and avoids quantization-noise (QN) shaping within …

Adelia: A 4-nm LLM Processing Unit With Streamlined Dataflow and Dual-Mode Parallelism for Maximizing Hardware Efficiency

Adelia: A 4-nm LLM Processing Unit With Streamlined Dataflow and Dual-Mode Parallelism for Maximizing Hardware Efficiency 150 150

Abstract:

The proliferation of large language models (LLMs) as cross-domain foundation models is fueled by aggressive scaling in both parameter counts and inference-time computation. The emergence of sophisticated reasoning models further accelerates this trend, demanding longer context windows and escalating the computational and memory burdens of inference. A fundamental challenge arises …

A 2–18 GHz High-Efficiency CMOS Nonuniform Distributed Power Amplifier With a Novel Reconfigurable Inductive Termination

A 2–18 GHz High-Efficiency CMOS Nonuniform Distributed Power Amplifier With a Novel Reconfigurable Inductive Termination 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a 2–18 GHz high-efficiency CMOS nonuniform distributed power amplifier (NDPA) with a novel reconfigurable inductive termination technique for ultra-broadband efficiency enhancement. First, the inherent drawback of the degrading efficiency with growing frequency in a conventional non-reconfigurable NDPA architecture with multi-octave bandwidth is studied. A simple and effective reconfigurable …

A 70-GHz Bandwidth Amplifier With Integrated Differential Bridged T-coil Peaking and Uniform Group Delay

A 70-GHz Bandwidth Amplifier With Integrated Differential Bridged T-coil Peaking and Uniform Group Delay 150 150

Abstract:

A two-stage amplifier in 22-nm FD-SOI CMOS integrates a fully-differential bridged T-coil for the first time. Circuit performance is benchmarked against an identical amplifier topology designed with single-ended T-coils (pseudo-differential) and an unpeaked reference. It realizes 70-GHz bandwidth with $12~\pm ~2$ -ps group delay and >10-dB return loss across 90 GHz. Bandwidth …
