This week’s exercises were mainly focused on exercise6.8 which got me stuck. Initially, I followed the author’s approach and derived the formula for a long time, but later realized that the formula was too complex to yield specific values. After getting stuck, I paused for a few days, and when I picked it up again … Read more
Bu Zeng – Huawai Micro: This week, we studied the first half of Chapter 6. In integrated circuit design, the basic characteristics of devices and the layout design are crucial. It is not a good idea to rely on the absolute values of devices, so using proportional design is evident. However, proportional design still faces … Read more
Time interleavedADC improves the sampling rate ofADC by using multiple parallel workingADCs. Ignoring the non-ideal factors present in thechannel ADC, there are non-ideal factors such asoffset mismatch, gain mismatch, and timing skew between the interleavedADCs, which causespur in theADC output leading to a decrease inENOB. Assuming thechannel ADC is ideal and ignoring noise factors. 4-way … Read more
