SE6: Interleaving ADC's - exploiting the parallelism

Why are interleaving ADC's becoming more and more popular in recent years? Are other ADC architectures running out of steam and will interleaving ADC's be the standard in the near future just as multi-core micro-processors are replacing single core? In this session an overview of recent developments in interleaving ADC's is shown. Due to the shrinking area of a single converter, many slices can be integrated in parallel resulting in a new degree of freedom for ADC designers, resulting in higher speeds, better efficiency and more flexibility.
