Background Data converters act as gatekeepers between analog and digital formats, translating information between the physical world and computing devices. Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) specifically convert analog signals to digital numbers, where information can be processed, analyzed, and stored in digital format for human consumption. Many...

Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) act as gatekeepers between physical world (analog) and data analytics (digital). In the IoT era of connected edge devices sensing various physical quantities for analysis in the cloud, ADCs need to have both high resolution (14-16 bits) and high energy efficiency at µW level power. High resolution data conversion...
