Abstract :
Recent work on current mode ADCs (analog-to-digital converters) is reviewed. For comparison purposes, a brief look is taken at what has been achieved using some of the more popular voltage mode ADCs. Following this some of the reported current/voltage-mode and current-mode ADCs are discussed. Recent advances in current-mode ADCs are then reviewed to illustrate the performance that can presently be achieved using these techniques
