  • 1.5-Bit Stages In Pipeline ADCs

    By Dave Treleaven, May 11, 2006

    Use of pipeline analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) continues to expand, both as standalone parts and as embedded functional blocks in system-on-a-chip (SoC) ICs. They boast acceptable resolution at high-speed operation and can be integrated onto relative

  • Paying For Double Density

    By Mike Christie, April 13, 2006

    The tried-and-true axiom of "you don't get something for nothing" certainly can apply to the latest multilevel NAND flash chips. Though they dramatically increase the memory capacity in a given core die area, it's at the expense of more compl

  • The Reverse Engineer's View

    By Dave Treleaven, January 12, 2006

    There's hype, and then there's reality. When it comes to leading-edge chips, the chasm between the two is rather wide. Reverse engineers tear these technologies apart for a perspective that often diverges far from commentaries offered by the chipmakers an
