A 10-bit 50 mega-samples-per-second pipelined analog-to-digital converter

Most of modern communication devices are implemented on portable systems powered by a battery with limited energy. Due to their dependence on batteries, some efforts have to be made to minimize the power consumption of these devices. One of the approaches is to use low power analog-to-digital conver...
