The use of low-resolution digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital converters (DACs and ADCs) significantly benefits energy efficiency (EE) at the cost of high quantization noise in implementing massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)…

This paper presents a novel encoding method for fine time data of a tapped delay line (TDL) time-to-digital Converter (TDC). It is based on divide-and-conquer strategy, and has the advantage of significantly reducing logic resource…

Modern communication receiver architectures center around digital signal processing (DSP), with the bulk of the receiver processing being performed on digital signals obtained after analog-to-digital conversion (ADC). In this paper, we…

We have developed a completely new type of general-purpose CCD data acquisition system which enables one to drive any type of CCD using any type of clocking mode. A CCD driver system widely used before consisted of an analog multiplexer…
