Abstract

The SAR ADC, recognized for its low power consumption, moderate resolution, and satisfactory processing speed, stands as an ideal choice for ultra-low power biomedical applications. Recent efforts have been concentrated on enhancing the power efficiency of the SAR ADC sub-components through intricate refinements and innovative techniques. These efforts aim to minimize energy consumption without compromising the ADC's performance. Therefore, this paper aims to thoroughly examine various implementation approaches for the main components of the SAR ADC, highlighting their individual strengths, weaknesses, and limitations within wireless biomedical applications.
