  • Abstract
    Systematic and random parametric mismatches are major performance limiters as well as notorious causes for re-designs of high precision mixed-signal circuits and systems. Therefore it is extremely important to measure, analyze, interpret, model and document parametric mismatch mechanisms. This paper provides an overview of the main requirements and techniques for mismatch characterization of active and passive IC devices in mixed-signal technologies.
