Title: Choice of ADCs
Post by Flynn Rider on Oct 1^st, 2012, 7:06am

Dear reader,

I have to build a neural front end architecture capable of picking neural signals, amplifying and digitizing it. I have made amplifiers and now need to make ADC. I have practically no experience in building ADCs. State of the art in my domain shows Delta Sigma and SAR ADCs to be most common. I have to make this system in 0.5um technology. Are there any neat tutorials on getting started!

There are a number of textbooks on the subject, start with some basic research.

Frequency and resolution of conversion?

0.5 micron?
