Author(s): Cong Wei, Ziqiang Peng, Lijie Huang, Jinze Lai, Rongshan Wei, Xiaoqiang Lu, Zhichao Tan

Abstract:

This article presents a discrete-time, third-order, single-loop, 17-level delta-sigma modulator (DSM) for high-dynamic-range sensor measurement applications, which employs a loop filter auto-shift (LFAS) technique. It uses an on-chip 1.5-bit Schmitt monitor to determine whether the input amplitude is large or small. The DSM automatically shifts to loop filter A for …

Author(s): Munjae Chae, Seheon Jang, Seungjae Lee, Jaehyouk Choi

Abstract:

This work presents a 10.0–11.5-GHz fractional- $N$ digital phase-locked loop (DPLL) using the quantization-error-compensating bang–bang phase detector (QEC-BBPD) that can minimize both the static delay ( $T_{\mathrm {S}}$ ) and the dynamic delay ( $T_{\mathrm {D}}$ ) required for removing the delta-sigma modulator’s ( $\Delta \Sigma $ M) quantization-error (Q-error). Since the …

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

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
Author(s): Mietek Dabrowski, Filip Tavernier, Paul Leroux

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 …
