1. Imec unveiled two ADCs at the IEEE VLSI Symposium, designed for 'beyond 5G' communication, one for base stations and one for phones, both operating up to 5GHz. 2. The base station ADC is a 10Gsample/s CMOS hierarchical time-interleaved ADC with 9 ENOB at low frequencies and 8.2 ENOB at Nyquist, consuming 350mW. 3. The handset ADC uses a multi-bit pipelined architecture with background calibration, achieving 10.91 ENOB and 81dB SFDR at 1Gsample/s with 17.8mW consumption.
