Abstract :
This work investigates the analysis of transient noise in non steady-state systems such as comparator-based switched-capacitor circuits. It expands the impulse sensitivity method previously applied to oscillator noise analysis to general linear time varying systems. The method described here uses simulation techniques to obtain the noise transfer function. This provides a useful tool for circuit design because it allows for the precision and ease of simulation without sacrificing the intuition of hand calculations.
