IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Analog Signal Processing Technical Committee

(ASPTC) Annual Activity Report 2017 – 2018

A total of 37 ASPTC members contributed to this annual report. The list is attached as Appendix 1. This report is compiled by George Yuan, Chair, ASPTC.

1. Introduction The ASPTC is one of the largest technical committees in the IEEE CAS Society. More information about ASPTC can be found at http://ieee-as.org/community/technical-committees/asptc. The research theme of ASPTC members covers the core area of the CAS society. Many TC members are well-established researchers in the CAS community. However, as a TC, members’ involvement in the TC activities has been relatively low compared to the size of the TC.

In the past year, the focus of TC officials has been to streamline the TC working force and to energize members’ involvement to the TC. Three major new initiatives have been pursued and executed.

1) New ISCAS review committee formation

Every ISCAS, ASPTC has usually 300+ paper submission. In previous years, normally 40- TC members would be willing to serve as RCM. All RCMs were heavily overloaded, which affected the review turn-around time and the review quality.

For ISCAS 2018, a new practice is put into use. Track co-chairs started the process early to invite RCMs. Besides TC members, track co-chairs also acted to solicit the nomination of external experts, and invited some of them to join the review committee. Through this practice, a 60-member committee was formed for the past review, which improved the review quality significantly. Track co-chairs also solicited and invited a list of members and experts to serve as experienced reviewers for RCMs.

The TC also formed a new guideline for RCMs and reviewers, which can be roughly described as

a. RCMs should review their own assigned paper; b. RCMs could serve as reviewers for another 5 papers; c. RCM could assign an dedicated reviewer to review the paper; d. Every reviewer should provide comments.

With this new architecture, RCMs’ duty on finding reviewer is greatly simplified. While the paper can be reviewed by more experienced reviewers. Hence, the review turn-around time can be reduced, while the review quality can be improved.

2) TC membership pruning

2

For the first time, the TC acted according to the TC bylaw to prune inactive TC members. Following the by-law, TC officials identified possible inactive members, and checked with the members about their intention to stay with the TC. From the feedback, none of the contacted members seem to have felt being offended. Some promised to stay more actively involved with the TC. Some asked to be removed from the TC. It is a positive way to bring attention to members.

3) New membership

The TC also promoted new membership, and acted to get new members involved in TC activities. In the past ISCAS, three new members were accepted.

1. Matthew Johnston, Assistant Professor, Oregon State University 2. Marvin Onabajo, Assistant Professor, Northeastern University 3. Taimur Rabuske, Senior Researcher, INESC-ID

The TC officials re-examined the member mailing list to include the new members so as to get new members informed about the TC activities. All the three new members have actively involved in the RCM and ISCAS conference. This is another effective way to gradually expand the core working force of the ASPTC.

Detailed activities of the ASPTC and its members are described below.

2. IEEE ISCAS 2018, Florence, Italy In ISCAS 2018, the ASPTC is the most active track again with the highest submission number in recent years. A total 346 papers were submitted, ~24% more compared to last year (279) and 32% more compared to the second most active rack (VLSI) in ISCAS 2018. Of the 346 papers, 181 were accepted (an acceptance rate of 52%) – 112 and 69 were accepted as lectures and as posters respectively. The Track co-Chairs were George Yuan, Nathan Neihart, and Jose de la Rosa.

This year, the ASPTC review is organized by a large review committee including members and external experts. The external members are nominated by TC members and invited by track co-chairs. The RCM is formed well before the ISCAS review. It is suggested that track co-chairs of the next ISCAS could continue to build the RCM based on previous year’s RCM list with the consultation of previous year’s co-chairs so as to build a consistent and efficient review committee, which is also the practice of many other good conferences.

Overall, the RCM included 60 members. The RCM list is tabulated in Table I in Appendix 2. A total 1451 reviewers were assigned (average of 4.2 reviewers/paper) and total 1354 reviews (average 3.9 reviews/paper) were received. The review statistics are tabulated in Table II. The accepted papers are arranged in 22 lecture sessions and 5 poster sessions. The sessions will be chaired by 20 ASPTC members; the details are tabulated in Table III. This summary is compiled by George Yuan.

3. Membership Activity Study The list of members was determined by the record on the TC mailing list ASPTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG as of May 2017. A member was determined to be either “active” or “not active” as per the definition of Membership in the “Analog Signal Processing Technical Committee of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Bylaws.” This rule states:

“A member is removed from the committee if he/she does not attend three consecutive annual committee meetings and is not a member of the ASP program committee for 2 consecutive years.”

To evaluate annual committee meeting attendance we used the attendance list found in the 2015-2017 meeting minutes. To evaluate ASP Program Committee membership, we used the list of Review Committee Members found in the 2016-2017 Annual Reports.

3

Analysis: 1) Total Members as of May 2017 .............................................................. 81 2) Number of members that have attended at least one (1) TPC meeting

but have not served on the ASP Program Committee ............................ 15

3) Number of members that have served on at least one (1) ASP Program Committee

but have not attended any TPC meetings .............................................. 15

4) Number of members that have both attended at least one (1) TPC meeting AND have served on at least one (1) ASP Program Committee ............ 26

5) Number of members that have not attended any TPC meetings

NOR served on any ASP Program Committees ..................................... 25

From the study, we see that there is a healthy core number of members whom regularly participate by both attending annual TPC meetings as well as serving on ASP Program Committees. The latter is particularly important due to the large number of papers that are regularly submitted to the ASP track of ISCAS.

The ASP-TC officers will begin enforcing the membership requirements, as laid out in the “Analog Signal Processing Technical Committee of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society Bylaws,” starting in 2018. To facilitate this, an email was sent out to the 25 members deemed as “not active” on February 25, 2018. This emailed notified the member of their membership status and allows anyone wishing to remain as an active member to either attend the 2018 annual TPC meeting or serve on the 2018 Review Committee.

Starting in 2018 the ASP-TC will begin the following process:

1. At the conclusion of the ISCAS meeting, the Secretary of the ASP-TC will remove all members that do not meet the membership requirements as described in the Bylaws.

2. At the conclusion of the ISCAS meeting, the Secretary will send an email notification to all members that are one year away from not meeting the membership requirements.

(invited paper from ISCAS 2017) Synopsis: This paper describes a linearization method to enhance the third-order distortion performance of a subthreshold common-source cascode low-noise amplifier (LNA) without extra power consumption by using passive components. The theoretical mechanisms that underlie the linearity improvement are analyzed comprehensively under consideration of the LNA’s input stage, cascode stage, reverse isolation, and stability. A 1.8 GHz LNA was designed and fabricated using 0.11µm CMOS technology to prove the concept. Measurement results reveal that the linearized low-power LNA has a 14.8 dB voltage gain, a 3.7 dB noise figure, and a -3.7 dBm IIP3 with a power consumption of 0.336 mW.

Synopsis: An 8-bit 1GS/s hybrid analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for high-speed low-power applications is introduced in this paper. It has a subranging architecture with a 3-bit flash ADC as a first stage and a 5-bit 4-channel time-interleaved comparator-based asynchronous binary search (CABS) ADC as a second stage. In each channel, a merged sample-and-hold and capacitive digital-to-analog converter (SHDAC) performs the sampling and residue generation for the subranging operation. The effects of the parasitic capacitances on the SHDAC linearity are analyzed, and a linearity correction method is introduced to enable power-efficient high-speed operation in the presence of parasitics because the design approach allows to reduce the sampling capacitance in the SHDAC. Furthermore, the sampling network configuration incorporates an error reduction technique to alleviate the clock feedthrough of bootstrap switches. The offsets of the comparators in the flash ADC are calibrated in the foreground using a built-in reference signal via an extra sampling channel.

Synopsis: This paper demonstrates an input impedance boosting method that was developed for long-term monitoring of electroencephalography (EEG) signals. An instrumentation amplifier was designed with a negative capacitance generation feedback (NCGFB) technique to cancel the adverse effects of input capacitances from electrode cables and printed circuit boards. The NCGFB boosts the measured impedance from below 40 MΩ to above 500 MΩ at 50 Hz when the equivalent capacitance at the inputs is up to 150 pF. The prototype chip includes an automatic calibration system to adaptively enhance the input impedance through on-chip test signal generation, measurement, and automatic digital control of the NCGFB. Consisting of an instrumentation amplifier, low-pass notch filter and variable gain amplifier in 130nm CMOS technology, the signal path has a combined gain range of 66-93 dB with a total power consumption of 42 µW. The front-end bandwidth covers 0.5-48 Hz, and its integrated input-referred noise over the bandwidth is 3.75 µVrms. The measured third-order harmonic distortion component is at least 57 dB below the fundamental signal level. A common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of 77.6 dB and a power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) of 74 dB were measured at 10 Hz. When activated, the auxiliary test signal generation and calibration circuits consume a power of 542 µW.

Calibration of Comparator Offset in Loop-Unrolled SAR ADCs," in IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers, vol. 65, no. 2, pp. 458-470, Feb. 2018. Abstract: In conventional charge redistribution successive approximation register (SAR) ADCs that use a single comparator, the comparator offset causes no distortion but a dc shift in the transfer curve. In loop-unrolled (LU) SAR ADCs, on the other hand, mismatched comparator offset voltages introduce input-level-dependent errors to the conversion result, which deteriorates the linearity and limits the resolution. Still, the literature lacks a quantitative analysis on this phenomenon, and the resolution of most reported SAR ADCs of this kind, until recently, has been limited to 6 bit. In this paper, we analyze the effects of comparator offset voltage mismatch in LU-SAR ADCs, and establish the quantitative relation between individual offsets and the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) and the

39

effectivenumber-of-bits. A statistical linearity model is proposed for yield estimation. Finally, an on-line deterministic calibration technique for auto-zeroing dynamic comparator offset is presented to treat the offsets mismatch and improve linearity. A 150-MS/s 8-bit LU-SAR ADC is fabricated in a 130-nm CMOS technology to validate the concept. The measured result shows that the calibration improves the SNDR from 33.7 to 42.9 dB. The ADC consumes 640 μW from a 1.2-V supply with a figure-of-merit of 37.5 fJ/conv-step.

This paper proposes a lag-lead Active Voltage Positioning (AVP) technique that can be used in buck converters to minimize their output voltage transients during dynamic events, such as load pulses. The proposed technique is based on optimizing the output impedance of the converter across a wide range of frequencies, and therefore, output voltage transients in response to both narrow and wide load pulses can be minimized without increasing the converter’s main control loop bandwidth or the output capacitance.

Synopsis: This paper presents a linearity analysis to give insights into the impact of the cascode stage in a common-source low-noise amplifier (LNA) that is designed with subthreshold biasing and a linearity enhancement technique. It is shown how the third-order intermodulation intercept point (IIP3) of the subthreshold LNA improves through addition of an inductor and a digitally programmable capacitor at the gate of the cascode transistor.

Synopsis: General timing considerations for time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are reviewed prior to describing the design methodology for a prototype ADC. A clock generation system for a 1GS/s 8-bit subranging time-interleaved ADC is introduced. This hybrid ADC architecture contains four time-interleaved combined sample-and-hold and capacitive digital-to-analog converter (SHDAC) circuits as front-end sample-and-hold for a flash stage and for a time-interleaved successive approximation stage, which minimizes the errors due to sampling time mismatches between the two stages. The associated clock signal generation techniques that enable this hybrid ADC design approach are discussed in this paper.

Symp. on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), May 2017. Synopsis: A second-order Gm-C low-pass filter with a novel large-signal linearization method for operational transconductance amplifiers having low supply voltages is presented. The design technique uses a combination of unbalanced resistively degenerated differential pairs and adaptive biasing to extend the linear range. The presented unity-gain biquad filter cell is intended to be used as a building block in the baseband section of a low-power receiver, and it has been designed in a standard 0.13-μm CMOS technology with a cutoff frequency of 500 KHz. The power consumption of the filter is 39 μW with a supply voltage of 0.6 V. Simulation results show a total harmonic distortion of -40 dB for a 5 KHz input tone with 614 mV peak-to-peak differential swing in the passband of the filter.
