Ultra Low Power 8-bit ADC - Ultra Low Voltage (1V), Ultra Low Power (850nA) LFoundry (SMIC) 0.15 um

Overview

This macro-cell is a general purpose, ultra low power, 8-bit, time-based Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) core designed for LFoundry 0.15µm LF150 CMOS technology STD (Standard) and LP (Low Power) process. The circuit is ideal for general purpose/auxiliary low frequency measurements (such as power supply voltage monitor) in applications in which ultra low power consumption is mandatory. The core is easily retargeted to any other CMOS technology with R-poly devices.
