Parametric Analog Signal Amplification Applied to Nanoscale CMOS Technologies

Download or read book Parametric Analog Signal Amplification Applied to Nanoscale CMOS Technologies written by Joao Oliveira and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-06 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is dedicated to the analysis of parametric amplification with special emphasis on the MOS discrete-time implementation. This implementation is demonstrated by the presentation of several circuits where the MOS parametric amplifier cell is used: small gain amplifier, comparator with embedded pre-amplification, discrete-time mixer/IIR-Filter, and analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Experimental results are shown to validate the overall design technique.
