Some main factors affecting SNR of high speed ADC, such as aperture uncertainty, switch capacitor, and MOS switch, are analyzed. In the circuit, the full-differential structure and the bottom plate sampling technique are adopted to optimize the switch capacitors and MOS switches. The result based on the Spectre simulation on 0.35pm Bi- CMOS technology indicate that the aperture uncertainty, charge-injection, and non-linearity of clock feed-through are considerably restrained and the performance of T/H circuit is enhanced展开更多

The mechanism is based on a silicon–SiO_2–graphene capacitor on top of the ring waveguide. We show the capacitive actuation of the add/drop functionality by a voltage-driven change of the graphene optical absorption. The proposed capacitive solution overcomes the need for continuous heating to keep tuned the filter's in/out resonance and therefore eliminates "in operation" energy consumption.展开更多
