"A 0.06mm2 14nV/√Hz Chopper Instrumentation Amplifier with Automatic Differential-Pair Matching"
I. Akita, Toyohashi University of Technology

The paper presents a 0.06mm2 current-feedback instrumentation amplifier with 32MHz GBW in a standard 0.18μm CMOS. The amplifier uses the chopper-stabilized technique and a novel digital calibration for ripple suppression. The fabricated chip achieves less than 3.5μV offset voltage, 13.5nV/√Hz input referred noise and 194μA current consumption.

"Adaptive Cancellation of Gain and Nonlinearity Errors in Pipelined ADCs"
Y. Miyahara, Asahi Kasei Microdevices

The paper describes an auxiliary amplifier stage to provide nonlinear correction and noise cancellation to achieve 73.3dB SNDR in a 14b pipelined ADC running at 60MS/s. The chip is implemented in 0.18μm CMOS and consumes 68mW from a 1.6V supply.

T. Ito, Renesas Electronics

The paper presents the first-ever 40nm embedded SG-MONOS Flash macros for automotive applications. A SG-MONOS cell, a split-gate memory cell with charge-trapping storage, and three circuit techniques realize random-read access to the code macros at 5.1GB/s. The memory is reliable even at a junction temperature of 170°C

"A 0.15mm-Thick Non-Contact Connector for MIPI using Vertical Directional Coupler"
W. Mizuhara, Keio University

The paper presents a 0.15mm-thick non-contact connector for Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) applications. A fully balanced pulse transmitter fabricated in 90nm CMOS technology consumes 1.5pJ/b and significantly suppresses EMI, allowing simultaneous two-channel communications.
