  • Abstract
    High sampling rate ADCs are needed in several communications applications like cable modems, and wireless LANs. In this paper we present a low power pipelined ADC cell implemented in a 0.18 μm digital CMOS process. The ADC uses a 4-bit/stage architecture for reduced power and area. The ADC has been put on a test chip to verify performance and achieves -70dB THD performance for 10 MHz input at 50 MHz sampling rate.
