Abstract: The revolution of communication protocols beyond 5G raises more and more stringent phase noise (PN) requirements on the local oscillator (LO) [1]. Sampling PLLs (SPLLs) have gained ...

Abstract: This paper reports a flash-assisted time-interleaved SAR (FATI-SAR) ADC for digitizing the RF signal directly. The ADC provides the highest conversion speed per channel. In the proposed ...
