Conventional analog and mixed-signal (AMS) circuit designs heavily rely on manual effort, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. This paper presents a fully automated design methodology for Successive Approximation Register (SAR)…

In this contribution, it is proposes to limit the quantization search space of a successive approximation analog-to-digital converter through an analytic derivation of maximum possible sample-to-sample variation. The presented example…

The paper deals with the task of optimal design of Analog to Digital Converters (ADCs). A general ADC is modeled as a causal discrete-time dynamical system with outputs taking values in a finite set, and its performance is defined as the…

Time-domain ADCs are attractive for high-speed wireline receivers, as time resolution scales favorably with advanced CMOS technologies, enabling multi-GS/s single-channel sampling rates. However, conventional time-domain ADCs require…

A novel approach is being developed to introduce a parallel asynchronous implementation of non-intrusive global-local coupling. This study examines scenarios involving numerous patches, including those covering the entire structure. By…

This paper presents a differential 10-bit 2 MS/s successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a precision-improvement technique. The proposed method breaks the direct tradeoff between the capacitive…

This paper presents a low-power 10-bit 130-MS/s successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) in 90 nm CMOS process. The proposed asynchronous ADC consists of a comparator, SAR logic block and two control blocks…

We consider the problem of jointly optimizing ADC bit resolution and analog beamforming over a frequency-selective massive MIMO uplink. We build upon a popular model to incorporate the impact of low bit resolution ADCs, that hitherto has…

Reduction of comparison cycles leads to power savings of a successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converters (ADC). We establish that the lowest average number of comparison cycles of a SAR ADC approaches the entropy of…

Target parameter estimation in active sensing, and particularly radar signal processing, is a long-standing problem that has been studied extensively. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for target parameter estimation in cases where…

In practice, objective functions of real-time control systems can have multiple local minimums or can dramatically change over the function space, making them hard to optimize. To efficiently optimize such systems, in this paper, we develop…

High sampling speed can be achieved using multiple Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) based on the Time-Interleaving A/D Conversion (TIADC) technique. Various types of methods were proposed to correct the mismatch errors among parallel ADC…

Scaling foundation model training with Distributed Data Parallel (DDP) methods is bandwidth-limited. Existing infrequent communication methods like Local SGD were designed to synchronize only model parameters and cannot be trivially applied…

Anderson Acceleration (AA) is a method to accelerate the convergence of fixed point iterations for nonlinear, algebraic systems of equations. Due to the requirement of solving a least squares problem at each iteration and a reliance on…

Designing high-performance error-correcting codes at short blocklengths is critical for low-latency communication systems, where decoding is governed by finite-length and graph-structural effects rather than asymptotic properties. This…

This paper considers the distributed optimization of a sum of locally observable, non-convex functions. The optimization is performed over a multi-agent networked system, and each local function depends only on a subset of the variables. An…

This paper presents a 17 bit analogue-to-digital converter that incorporates mismatch and quantisation noise-shaping techniques into an energy-saving 10 bit successive approximation quantiser to increase the dynamic range by another 42 dB.…

We study the problem of minimizing the sum of potentially non-differentiable convex cost functions with partially overlapping dependences in an asynchronous manner, where communication in the network is not coordinated. We study the…

Comparators are utilised by Nyquist-rate and oversampling analog to digital converters (ADCs) to accomplish quantization and perhaps sampling. Thus, comparators have a substantial effect on the speed and accuracy of ADCs. This study…

In recent years, many estimation problems in robotics have been shown to be solvable to global optimality using their semidefinite relaxations. However, the runtime complexity of off-the-shelf semidefinite programming (SDP) solvers is up to…
