4-Bit Flash ADC

A 4-bit Flash analog-to-digital converter designed and simulated in Cadence.

VLSI Design Cadence
Overview

A VLSI design course project: designing a Flash ADC at the transistor level and verifying its performance through circuit simulation.

Approach

Designed the resistor ladder, comparator bank, and encoding logic for a 4-bit Flash ADC in Cadence, then simulated the design across process and voltage variation to characterize accuracy and conversion speed.

Result

A simulated 4-bit Flash ADC meeting target accuracy and speed specifications across the tested process and voltage corners.
