Energy-Efficient Smart Temperature Sensors in CMOS Technology

by Kofi A a Makinwa, Kamran Souri, Kofi A.A. Makinwa

Book Overview

This book describes the design and implementation of energy-efficient smart (digital output) temperature sensors in CMOS technology. To accomplish this, a new readout topology, namely the zoom-ADC, is presented. It combines a coarse SAR-ADC with a fine Sigma-Delta (SD) ADC. The digital result obtained from the coarse ADC is used to set the reference levels of the SD-ADC, thereby zooming its full-scale range into a small region around the input...
