A MEMS-Free 4096-Pixel CMOS E-Nose Array With MOF-Based Molecular Selectivity, In-Pixel Thermal Regeneration, and a Compact Single-Coefficient Bandpass Sigma–Delta ADC

A MEMS-Free 4096-Pixel CMOS E-Nose Array With MOF-Based Molecular Selectivity, In-Pixel Thermal Regeneration, and a Compact Single-Coefficient Bandpass Sigma–Delta ADC 150 150

Abstract:

This work presents a CMOS-only [micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS)-free] electronic nose (e-nose) for concurrent multi-gas-sensing applications. The proposed system integrates 4096 capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC) pixels, each implementing a compact bandpass sigma–delta ( $\Sigma \Delta $ ) ADC with a single feedback coefficient and no additional feedforward or feedback paths, achieving each pixel footprint …

Design and Verification of Low Parasitic MOS Capacitors With Series Connected Tri-Well Junctions

Design and Verification of Low Parasitic MOS Capacitors With Series Connected Tri-Well Junctions 150 150

Abstract:

This letter presents a tri-well implementation of MOS capacitors designed to tackle the challenge of high parasitic capacitance. By serially connecting the three parasitic well junction capacitors between the three wells (N-Well, deep P-Well, and deep N-Well) and substrate (PSUB), the parasitic capacitance can be significantly decreased. A higher bias …
