Ultra-Low-Power Dynamic-Bias Comparators With Self-Clocked Latch in 65-nm CMOS

Ultra-Low-Power Dynamic-Bias Comparators With Self-Clocked Latch in 65-nm CMOS 150 150

Abstract:

This article introduces two comparators featuring a dynamic-bias preamplifier and self-clocked latches, tailored for ultra-low-power and medium-speed applications with <500- $\mu $ V input-referred noise (IRN). The proposed self-clocked latches are activated by the preamplifier outputs and therefore operate with a lower common-mode current, which in turn minimizes the crowbar current …

A 0.5-/0.95-dB NF, 50-/25-Ω Configurable CMOS Front-End ASIC for the Readout of Liquid Argon Calorimeter in the LHC 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents the design of a four-channel front-end application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), ATLAS liquid argon front-end (ALFE), developed for the readout of the liquid-argon calorimeter (LAr) detector in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). ALFE enables the readout of current signals induced in the LAr …
