Author(s): Yuxin Ji, Chao Wang, Yuzhi Hao, Yang Zhao, Jian Zhao, Mingyi Chen, Guoxing Wang, Yong Lian, Yongfu Li

Abstract:

The wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor has immense potential for cardiovascular healthcare monitoring. However, uploading ECG signals to server-side devices for diagnosis poses privacy risks. Multi-tasking ECG processors rely on multi-beat windows and complex models, leading to high latency and energy consumption that limit deployment in resource-constrained wearable devices. In this …

An Incremental Noise-Shaping Pipeline ADC With Single-Amplification-Based kT/C Noise Cancellation Technique 150 150
Author(s): Zongnan Wang, Bingrui Li, Jiajun Tang, Zhongyi Wu, Haoyang Luo, Yuan Wang, Xiyuan Tang

Abstract:

This article presents an incremental noise-shaping (NS) pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring a single-amplification-based kT/C noise cancellation technique. By pre-amplifying the frontend sampling kT/C noise onto the capacitive digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) of the backend NS successive approximation register (SAR) quantizer, the proposed architecture eliminates the repeated amplifications typically …

Abstract:

This article presents a time-modulated variable-gain amplifier (VGA) employing a clock-sampling topology governed by a duty-cycle control (DCC) loop. By modulating the effective operation time of the amplifier rather than altering its RF bias conditions, for precise tuning of the clock duty cycle, enabling phase consistency at millimeter-wave frequencies. The …

Author(s): Sungwoong Yune, Jieon Yoon, Hangyeol Lee, Adiwena Putra, Jaehoon Heo, Joo-Young Kim

Abstract:

Text-to-motion models are AI systems that generate human motion sequences directly from natural language descriptions, serving as key enablers for immersive virtual avatars and interactive digital humans in AR/VR ecosystems. However, state-of-the-art text-to-motion diffusion models suffer from substantial computational costs due to their iterative nature, making them ill-suited for …

A 77-dB DR Two-Stage SAR ADC for Low-Gain Analog Front-Ends Using Asynchronous Pipelining and RC Snubber Reference Stabilization

A 77-dB DR Two-Stage SAR ADC for Low-Gain Analog Front-Ends Using Asynchronous Pipelining and RC Snubber Reference Stabilization 150 150
Author(s): Jun Feng, Rares Bodnar, Roberto Maurino, Marcel J. M. Pelgrom, Filip Tavernier

Abstract:

The analog front-end (AFE) often bottlenecks the power of modern receiver chains, burdened by the large-signal linearity required before the ADC. This work introduces a 77-dB DR, 200-MS/s two-stage SAR ADC that can alleviate much of this burden by offering a significantly lower input-referred noise (IRN) to enable low-gain …
