COURSE TOPICS
• Data Conversion and spectral estimation fundamentals
• Review of Switched Capacitor Circuits, Sample-and-hold, Comparators
• Nyquist rate ADCs: Flash, SAR, Pipelined, Time-interleaved ADCs.
• High-speed Link design issues: Driver Circuits, Equalizers, PAM signaling,
ADCs for high-speed links.
