Abstract: With the rapid rise of AI in various fields, we naturally wonder whether it can help or even replace analog designers. We first ponder a general question: how can AI become a competent analog designer? We postulate that AI must climb a five-level pyramid. At the foundation, AI must analyze circuits correctly. This ability […]
There are two -yes, only two!- skills you must learn to have a successful career as an engineer in industry. The problem is that you won’t like them. These two things do not come naturally to most engineers. That’s why the engineers who do know them stand out. But don’t worry. These two skills may […]
Abstract: Continuous-time (CT) zoom analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are highly efficient for high-resolution applications but typically suffer from DAC mismatch errors or require complex digital calibration. This talk presents advanced CT zoom ADC architectures that achieve state-of-the-art energy efficiency and high resolution by utilizing advanced filtering to ensure high linearity without explicit calibration. We focus on key […]
