A novel switched-current successive approximation ADC is presented in this paper with high speed and low power consumption. The proposed ADC contains a new high-accuracy and power-efficient switched-current S/H circuit and a speed-improved current comparator. Designed and simulated in a 0.18-μm CMOS process, this 8-bit ADC achieves 46.23 dB SNDR at 1.23 MS/s consuming 73.19 μW under 1.2 V voltage supply, resulting in an ENOB of 7.38-bit and an FOM of 0.357 pJ/Conv.-step.

AbstractUltracompact and low-power-consumption optical switches are desired for high-performance telecommunication networks and data centers. Here, we demonstrate an on-chip power-efficient 2 × 2 thermo-optic switch unit by using a suspended photonic crystal nanobeam structure. A submilliwatt switching power of 0.15 mW is obtained with a tuning efficiency of 7.71 nm/mW in a compact footprint of 60 μm × 16 μm. The bandwidth of the switch is properly designed for a four-level pulse amplitude modulation signal with a 124 Gb/s raw data rate. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed switch is the most power-efficient resonator-based thermo-optic switch unit with the highest tuning efficiency and data ever reported.

The successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) has been widely used in electronic devices due to the corresponding characteristics which are low cost, low power consumption, high accuracy and so on. This paper expounds a design of successive approximation A / D converter to show how to use TCL5615 which is a dual-channel serial 10-bit D/A converter (DAC) to make the conversion accuracy to reach 14-bit.


The present paper proposes a high speed and low power consumption by travelling novel XOR and XNOR gates. The present circuit consist optimized power intakeas well asdelay due to smallamount produced capacitance and power dissipation for low short circuit. Here we utilize 6 new hybrid 1 bit full adder circuitthat produces to and fro XOR/XNOR gates. Here the present circuit has its own advantages like rapidity, power consumption and delay in power product, dynamic capability and so on. Here we proposed signals like HSPICE, Cadence simulations for investigating the performance results which are based on 65-nm CMOS process technical models that indicate high speed and power against FA signals. So here we propose a novel new transistor sizing method that optimizes the PDP circuits. The present circuit investigates on various supply terms of variations like threshold voltages, size of transistors, input noise and output capacitance by utilizing numerical computation particle swam optimization algorithm for achieving desired value in optimum PDP with few iterations

In this paper we present a design of Flash-ADC that can achieve high performance and low power consumption. By using the Double Sampling Rate technique and a new comparator topology with low kick-back noise, this design can achieve high sampling rate while still consuming low power. The design is implemented in a 0.18 m CMOS process. The simulation results show that this design can work at 400 MSps and power consumption is only 16.24 mW. The DNL and INL are 0.15 LSB and 0.6 LSB, respectively.

A low power 12-bit, 20 MS/s asynchronously controlled successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to be used in wireless access for vehicular environment (WAVE) intelligent transportation system (ITS) sensor based application is presented in this paper. To optimize the architecture with respect to power consumption and performance, several techniques are proposed. A switching method which employs the common mode charge recovery (CMCR) switching process is presented for capacitive digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) part to lower the switching energy. The switching technique proposed in our work consumes 56.3% less energy in comparison with conventional CMCR switching method. For high speed operation with low power consumption and to overcome the kick back issue in the comparator part, a mutated dynamic-latch comparator with cascode is implemented. In addition, to optimize the flexibility relating to the performance of logic part, an asynchronous topology is employed. The structure is fabricated in 65 nm CMOS process technology with an active area of 0.14 mm2. With a sampling frequency of 20 MS/s, the proposed architecture attains signal-to-noise distortion ratio (SNDR) of 65.44 dB at Nyquist frequency while consuming only 472.2 µW with 1 V power supply.

VLSI technology become one of the most significant and demandable because of the characteristics like device portability, device size, large amount of features, expenditure, consistency, rapidity and many others. Multipliers and Adders place an important role in various digital systems such as computers, process controllers and signal processors in order to achieve high speed and low power. Two input XOR/XNOR gate and 2:1 multiplexer modules are used to design the Hybrid Full adders. The XOR/XNOR gate is the key punter of power included in the Full adder cell. However this circuit increases the delay, area and critical path delay. Hence, the optimum design of the XOR/XNOR is required to reduce the power consumption of the Full adder Cell. So a 6 New Hybrid Full adder circuits are proposed based on the Novel Full-Swing XOR/XNOR gates and a New Gate Diffusion Input (GDI) design of Full adder with high-swing outputs. The speed, power consumption, power delay product and driving capability are the merits of the each proposed circuits. This circuit simulation was carried used cadence virtuoso EDA tool. The simulation results based on the 90nm CMOS process technology model.
