A 5.8 nW 9.1-ENOB 1-kS/s Local Asynchronous Successive Approximation Register ADC for Implantable Medical Device.

This brief presents a 10-bits successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a sampling rate of 1 kS/s for implantable medical devices. This ADC is implemented in a 65-nm CMOS process in which leakage current will be a key design parameter. It imposes the highest degree of simplicity in the design of the ADCs architecture. Thus, the transistor count is minimized, which re...
