An 8b 100MS/s flash ADC

Abstract
This paper will describe an 8b flash ADC which achieves a conversion rate of 100MHz arid an input bandwidth of 30MHz at a power dissipation of 1200mW. The circuit is realized in an epitaxial-LOCOS process with a minimum line width of 2.5μm and a transistor f T of 4GHz at 45μA collector current.
