본 논문에서는 파이프라인드 방식의 빠른 변환 속도와 축차 비교 방식의 저전력 구조를 이용하여 고속, 저전력 아날로그 디지털 변환기를 제안하였다. 제안된 구조의 변환 방법은 축차 비교 방식의 변환에서 비교기를 파이프라인드 구조로 연결하여 홀드된 주기에 비교기의 기준 전위를 전 비교기의 출력값에 의해 변환하도록 하여 고속 동작이 가능하도록 하였다. 제안된 구조에 의해 비디오 신호처리가 가능한 10MS/s 아날로그 디지털 변환기를 0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS공정으로 HSPICE로써 시뮬레이션하였다. 6비트 아날로그 디지털 변환기는 100kHz 사인 입력 신호를 10MS/s로 샘플링 하여 DFT측정한 결과 37dB의 SNR을 얻을 수 있었으며, 전력 소모는 1.46mW로 측정되었다. 8비트 아날로그 디지털 변환기는 INL/DNL은 각각 $\pm$0.5/$\pm$1이었으며, 100kHz 사인 입력 신호를 10MS/s로 샘플링 하여 DFT 측정하였을 때 SNR은 41dB를 얻을 수 있었고, 전력 소모는 4.14mW로 측정되었다.

This paper is proposed a 8-bit anolog to digital converter for CMOS image sensor. A anolog to digital converter for CMOS image sensor is required function to control gain. Proposed anolog to digital converter is used frequency divider to control gain. At 3.3 Volt power supply, total static power dissipation is 8mW and programmable gain control range is 30dB. The gain control range can be easily increased with insertion of additional flip-flop at divided-by-N frequency divider circuit.

In this paper, the delay times were evaluated to develop highly reliable time-to-digital converter(TDC) in analog and digital delay element structures. The delay element can be designed by using current source or inverter. In case of using inverter, the number of inverter has to be controlled to adjust the delay time. And in case of using current source, the current for charging and discharging is controlled. When the current source is used the delay time of the delay element is not sensitive with varying the channel width of CMOS. However, when the inverter is used the delay time is directly related to the channel width of CMOS. Therefore to obtain good reliability in TDC circuit the delay element using current source is more stable compared to inverter in the viewpoint of the variation of fabrication process.

Due to several advantages of Pulse Width Modulated(PWM) Converter, such as unity power factor with low-harmonics and energy regeneration, PWM converter has been widely used in industrial application. In every application of energy conversion equipment, the design and implementation must be carried out considering performance and cost. High quality with low cost is the best choice for energy conversion equipment. High dc link voltage can reduce inverter and motor side losses and system dimension compare to low dc link voltage. Analog controller can make PWM converter cheaper without considerable degradation of the performance than digital controller. This paper shows the simplified analog controller-for 600V dc link voltage using stationary reference frame control and the simulation results.

In this paper, a new frequency-to-digital converter without an analog element is proposed. The proposed circuit consists of pulse-shrinking elements, latches and D flip-flops, and the operation is based on frequency comparison by the pulse-shrinking element. In the proposed circuit, the resolution of digital output can be easily improved by increasing the number of the pulse-shrinking elements. The FDC performance is improved in viewpoints of operating speed and chip area. In designed FDC, error of frequency-to-digital conversion is less than 0.1 %.

A new circuit configuration for charge-balancing successive approximation Analog-to-Digital converters is described. This consists of a improved successive approximation register(SAR) and a weighted capacitor Digital-to-Analog converter (WCDAC). Due to the inherent conversion property of the WCDAC, the A/D converter using the WCDAC can be simply implemented by successive approximation conversion method, and 4bit monotonicity conversion with differential nonlinearity less 1/2LSB is completed in 80 US.

Static testing of analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) converters becomes more difficult when they are embedded in a system on chip. Built-in self-test (BIST) reduces the need for external support for testing. This paper proposes a new static BIST structure for testing both A/D and D/A converters. By sharing test circuitry, the proposed BIST reduces the hardware overhead. Furthermore, test time can also be reduced using the simultaneous test strategy of the proposed BIST. The proposed method can be applied in various A/D and D/A converter resolutions and analog signal swing ranges. Simulation results are presented to validate the proposed method by showing how linearity errors are detected in different situations.

A multi-bit sigma-delta modulator architecture is described for low-distortion performance and a high-speed operation. The proposed architecture uses both a delayed code and a delayed differential code of analog-to-digital converter in the feedback path, thereby suppressing signal components in the integrators and relaxing the timing requirement of the analog-to-digital converter and the scrambler logic. Implemented by a 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process, the sigma-delta modulator achieves high linearity. The measured spurious-free dynamic range is 89.1 dB for -6 dBFS input signal.
