Author(s): Jiazhen Ni, Dayi Zhou, Minqing Cai, Chen Chen, Xiang Gao, Seung-Chul Lee

Abstract:

Successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) often employ dual-mode dynamic comparators to achieve both high speed and low noise. However, under low-supply operation, offset drift from mode transitions and degraded front-end linearity due to limited signal headroom become critical challenges. To address these issues, an adaptive current-injection scheme suppresses …

Abstract:

This work presents an 11.5-Gb/s/pin transmitter (TX) for ultra-dense capacitively coupled channels that achieves near-complete eye-margin recovery while operating from a 0.4-V driver supply using a switched-coupling charge-pump-based crosstalk cancellation (SCCP-XTC) scheme. In the proposed scheme, one of four precharged capacitor banks in each XT cancellation (XTC) path …

A W-Band Active Bidirectional Phase Shifter With 2° RMS Phase Error Over 26.4% FBW Using Back-Gate Biasing in 28-nm FD-SOI CMOS

A W-Band Active Bidirectional Phase Shifter With 2° RMS Phase Error Over 26.4% FBW Using Back-Gate Biasing in 28-nm FD-SOI CMOS 150 150
Author(s): Sungwon Kwon, Byung-Wook Min

Abstract:

This article presents a W-band active bidirectional vector-sum phase shifter (Bi-VSPS) using a bidirectional phase-inverting variable-gain amplifier (Bi-PIVGA) with back-gate biasing in 28-nm fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) CMOS. The Bi-PIVGA employs a neutralization technique that cancels the gate-to-drain capacitances of both active and inactive transistors in each signal direction. By …

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 475-nW Area-Efficient Programmable Analog Feature Extraction Filterbank for Audio Classification

A 475-nW Area-Efficient Programmable Analog Feature Extraction Filterbank for Audio Classification 150 150
Author(s): Patrice Abbie D. Legaspi, Shubham Yadav, Mark S. Oude Alink, Bram Nauta

Abstract:

Audio classification in edge devices has many applications and can be implemented at varying levels of complexity, typically consisting of a feature extractor followed by a classifier. Such devices are often always-on, constantly listening to their surroundings, and have a small form factor; therefore, they require low-power operation and high …
