Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) perform conversions by comparing the input voltage level against the reference input; therefore, the accuracy, stability and noise of the reference directly affect ...

Simulating a circuit design before committing it to silicon is always the wise thing to do, since problems can be caught before they become costly mistakes. Analog designers’ familiarity with Spice 1 ...

In this article, we highlight one of the most important architectural traits of new continuous-time sigma-delta (CTSD) precision ADCs: the easy to drive resistive input and reference. The key to ...
