Date: 23 November 2018 (Friday)

Time: 11:00am – 1:00pm

The speaker is:

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Maurits Ortmanns, Institute of Microelectronics, University of Ulm

 

The Lecture is:

Continuous-Time Sigma-Delta ADCs for Receiver Applications – Basics, Non-idealities and State of the Art

 

Abstract:

Continuous-time sigma-delta ADCs have obtained a dominant position for the digitization in wireless receivers. With steadily improved theoretical understanding, architectural innovations and excellent circuit designs, they have achieved bandwidths in the range of hundreds of MHz, while showing high resolution with unbeaten power efficiency. But there is more to it: continuous-time sigma-delta ADCs feature an implicit filtering, which becomes very attractive in the case of blocker or interferer scenarios, which is the usual case in wireless receivers. More recently, there have been a number of architectural and circuit innovations, which improved the robustness of the continuous-time sigma-delta ADC to such interferers, which are known as filtering ADCs. This talk covers different aspects of such continuous-time Σ∆ modulators:
• Basic Operation and Architectures
• Influence of non-idealities and correction techniques
• Implicit anti-aliasing and signal-filtering
