Abstract
Over the last decade, a vast evolution munication systems was observed. The enor-
mous popularity and expansion of the was a driving force for the development of
broadband access in every home to cope with the increasing bandwidth require-
ments for multimedia applications. At the same time, munication evolved
from an work with large devices, to small and cheap handsets which are based
on munication standards. The core of all plex electronic systems con-
sists of digital circuits which have a putational power and are implemented in
CMOS technologies. The development of ever faster and more powerful digital cores opens
the way to plex systems with increasing demands for the analog part which has
to provide an interfacing layer to the outside world. One of the crucial building blocks in
the analog part is the Analog to Digital converter.
The goal of this work is to present an architecture study of AD converters and
to provide insight into a wide range of analog circuit imperfections which can limit the
performance. The emphasis is put on high-speed high-resolution converters in CMOS,
although the material can also be applied for other specification goa
