Session 5 overview: Analog techniques
Marco Berkhout, Tim Piessens · 2016
Analog technology continues to defy simple categories. This session illustrates the diversity and vigor of modern analog circuitry. The common thread among the various papers is the improvement of energy efficiency for the various applications. Sensor nodes and consumer devices can achieve more battery life and smaller form factors. Entries span the range of operational amplifiers, Class-D audio, sensor front-ends, VGAs, and oscillators. New frontiers of precision, power, and performance are established.
