Delta-sigma (ΔΣ) converters may sound complex, but at their core, they are all about precision. In this post, we will peel back the layers and uncover the fundamentals behind their elegant design. At ...
A technical paper titled “Analog Foundation Models” was published by IBM Research– Zurich, ETH Zurich, IBM Research-Almaden, and IBM TJ Watson Research Center. Find the technical paper here. published ...
These days, most of the media we consume is digital. We still watch movies and TV shows, but they’re all packaged in digital files that cram in many millions of pixels and as many audio channels as we ...
Abstract: This paper studies the impact of quantization in integrate-and-fire time encoding machine (IF-TEM) sampler used for bandlimited (BL) and finite-rate-of ...
An EDN Design Idea (DI) presented a discussion of how to increase the resolution of an ADC by adding a non-deterministic, zero-mean, Gaussian noise dither waveform to a signal to be converted; then, ...
Roland announced the new TR-1000 Rhythm Creator today: a $2,699 USD drum machine that blends digital sound engines and analog circuitry with new sampling abilities, all in one heavy-hitting piece of ...
IBM researchers, together with ETH Zürich, have unveiled a new class of Analog Foundation Models (AFMs) designed to bridge the gap between large language models (LLMs) and Analog In-Memory Computing ...
ENOB describes an analog-to-digital converter’s performance with respect to total noise and distortion. In the earlier parts of this series on analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), we looked at the ...
Specifications such as gain error, offset error, and differential nonlinearity help define an analog-to-digital converter’s performance. In part 1 of this series, we discussed an ideal ...
