Pipelined Analog to Digital Converter and Fault Diagnosis

Pipelined Analog to Digital Converter and Fault Diagnosis Synopsis

Pipelined analog to digital converters (ADCs) have become the architecture of choice for high-speed and moderate- to high-resolution devices. Subsequently, different techniques of fault diagnosis by the built-in self-test (BIST) system have been developed.

An ideal reference for graduate students and researchers within electrical, electronics and computer engineering, this book provides a rigorous, theoretical and mathematical analysis for the design of pipelined ADCs, along with detailed practical aspects of implementing it in very large-scale integration (VLSI). In each chapter a unique fault diagnosis technique for pipelined ADC has been proposed.
