In this paper, we propose a new architecture for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) using multistate spatial wavefunction-switched field-effect transistors (SWSFETs). SWSFETs are multiple quantum coupled well devices, where the wells are stacked vertically and the electron wavefunction switches from one well to another with the change in gate voltage. Quantum mechanical simulations of 3-well InGaAs-AlInAs SWSFET structures are presented. The designs and simulations of 2-bit and 3-bit ADCs using SWSFETs result in low power consumption and reduced device count which improves the speed of the data conversion.

The signal processing is advancing day by day as its needs and in wireline/wireless communication technology from 2G to 4G cellular communication technology with CMOS scaling process. In this context the high-performance ADCs, analog to digital converters have snatched the attention in the field of digital signal processing. The primary emphasis is on low power approaches to circuits, algorithms and architectures that apply to wireless systems. Different techniques are used for reducing power consumption by using low power supply, reduced threshold voltage, scaling of transistors, etc. In this paper, we have discussed the different types and different techniques used for analog to digital conversion of signals considering several parameters.
