Introduction
Flash analog-to-digital converters, also known asparallelADCs, are the fastest way to convert an analog signal to a digital
signal.Flash ADCsare suitable for applications requiring very large bandwidths. However, these converters consume considerable
power, have relatively low resolution, and can be quite expensive. This limits them to h……
