Time-Interleaved ADCs in the Context of Hybrid Filter Banks
Proceedings of the 2004 URSI International Symposium on Signals, Systems, and Electronics. ISSSE 2004., page 214--217. (August 2004)Abstract
In recent years the popularity of hybrid filter bank technologies for analog-to-digital conversion (HFB ADC) has increased and they have found their way from the academic world to industrial applications. Hybrid Filter bank designs are based on an established mathematical framework for optimized converter designs. Time-interleaved ADC (TIADC) technologies have a much longer history; nevertheless, a complete mathematical framework for the investigation of TIADCs has not yet been established. This is particularly remarkable, since an HFB ADC can be thought of as a generalization of a TIADC. Based on the mathematical framework of HFB ADCs, we introduce a complete framework for treating TIADCs and show advantages of this unified description.
