Abstract
A new encoding scheme for high-speed flash analog to digital converters using a Wallace tree is described. It provides a global error filtering and its regular topology optimises the signal propagation. Its application to a 5-bit 1.4-GHz Gallium Arsenide analog-to-digital converter is described.

Method and system for antenna interference cancellation

TL;DR: In this paper, a cancellation device can suppress antenna interference by generating an estimate of the interference signal and subtracting the estimate from the interference signals, based on sampling signals on an antenna that generates the interference or on the antenna that receives the interference.

Digitally synthesized stochastic flash ADC using only standard digital cells

TL;DR: An ADC is synthesized entirely from Verilog code in 90nm digital CMOS using a standard digital cell library and an implicitly aligned three-section piecewise-linear inverse Gaussian CDF function on chip linearizes the output.

A Suggestion for a Fast Multiplier

TL;DR: A design is developed for a multiplier which generates the product of two numbers using purely combinational logic, i.e., in one gating step, using straightforward diode-transistor logic.

High-speed CMOS circuit technique

TL;DR: It is shown that clock frequencies in excess of 200 MHz are feasible in a 3- mu m CMOS process, and a precharge technique with a true single-phase clock, which increases the clock frequency and reduces the skew problems, is used.

The behaviour of flip-flops used as synchronizers and prediction of their failure rate

TL;DR: It is shown first, theoretically as well as experimentally, that the average rate of system failures, due to the occurrence of metastable states (MSSs), is independent of circuit noise.
