Dentro de la asignatura de Seminarios del Máster Multinacional en Microelectrónica, el próximo martes 6 de mayo, de 15:00 a 18:00, en el aula 3.0.3, se impartirá el titulado: "ADC Workshop with Simulink" por parte de Ganesh Rathinavel, Principal Application Engineer en MathWorks especializado en Analog/Mixed-Signal (AMS) Design.
In the rapidly evolving field of digital signal processing, data converters play a crucial role in bridging the gap between analog and digital domains. This workshop is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of how to effectively model, simulate, and analyze data converter-based signal chains using Simulink.
Participants will explore the fundamental concepts of data converters, including Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) and Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs), and their critical impact on the performance of signal processing systems, and also explore supporting components like Anti-Aliasing Filters, frequency synthesizers and digital filters.
By the end of this workshop, participants will have gained practical skills in designing robust data converter-based signal chains and leveraging Simulink's powerful simulation capabilities to enhance system performance. This workshop is ideal for engineers, researchers, and students who are keen to deepen their knowledge and improve their proficiency in digital signal processing and system modeling.
Content of the ADC workshop
Through hands-on exercises and real-world examples, attendees will learn how to implement and optimize signal chains that incorporate these converters within the Simulink environment.
Key topics covered in this workshop include:
- Design a system-level of a Delta Sigma Modulator (DSM) ADC
- Explore DSM architectures with different architectures
- Generate SystemVerilog/HDL code for components
- Instantiate Analog and digital filters
- Performance evaluation with AC and DC measurement testbenches
This workshop is ideal for engineers, researchers, and students who are keen to deepen their knowledge and improve their proficiency in digital signal processing and system modelling.
Speaker Bio
Ganesh Rathinavel is a Principal Application Engineer at MathWorks specializing in the Analog/Mixed-Signal (AMS) Design, within the EMEA region. He works from the Dutch office in Eindhoven and is responsible for increasing adoption of MathWorks tools in the AMS and Signal Integrity domain.
Before joining MathWorks in October 2018, he worked as a R&D Engineer at Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre (IMEC) & at STMicroelectronics, where he developed Mixed-Signal systems for NFC/RFID tags, Display drivers and Sensor Readouts. He holds two master’s degrees in Semiconductor Engineering and Physics respectively, during which he specialized in Analog Design and System modeling.
