Abstract :
This paper gives an introduction to the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS technology and presents the major advantages and disadvantages of using SOI. It also presents the design of a comparator, which has been sent for manufacturing, designed in a 0.13 μm partially depleted SOI CMOS process. The comparator is a first step towards the design of a complete 6-bit flash analog-to-digital converter, with a sampling frequency of 1.5 GHz.
