US Patent Issued to MediaTek on Feb. 18 for "Mitigation of undesired spectral images due to bandwidth mismatch in time-interleaved A/DS by sampling capacitance randomization" (California Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 19 -- United States Patent no. 12,231,140, issued on Feb. 18, was assigned to MediaTek Inc. (Hsinchu, Taiwan).

"Mitigation of undesired spectral images due to bandwidth mismatch in time-interleaved A/DS by sampling capacitance randomization" was invented by Gabriele Manganaro (San Jose, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Described herein are techniques for mitigating bandwidth mismatch in time-interleaved (TI) analog-to-digital converters (ADC). The techniques described herein involve spreading the energy associated with spurious tones resulting from bandwidth mismatch across the frequency spectrum, thereby reducing the overall impact of each individual tone. In some ...
