SE6: Interleaving ADC´s - exploiting the parallelism

Why are interleaving ADC´s becoming more and more popular in recent years? Are other ADC architectures running out of steam and will interleaving ADC´s be the standard in the near future just as multi-core micro-processors are replacing single core? In this session an overview of recent developments in interleaving ADC´s is shown. Due to the shrinking area of a single converter, many slices can be integrated in parallel resulting in a new degree of freedom for ADC designers, resulting in higher speeds, better efficiency and more flexibility.
