Final Project Submission Procedure (Due Tomorrow - May 16 Thursday 11:59 PM)


Please carefully read the "Final Project Submission Procedure"
posted in the final project section of the 6.775 website and
complete your submission by tomorrow Thursday May 16, 11:59 PM.
Please make sure to consider both thermal noise and mismatch
when reporting the figure-of-merit (FOM) of your ADC. Let me know
if you have any questions. \sungwon

Clarification on power consumption in final project


When finding the ADC figure-of-merit (FOM), "dynamic" power consumption
should be considered in addition to static power consumption. Please refer
to the updated tutorial slides on ADC-test for getting FOM from simulation
during the conversion of one-period of a sinusoid.

TA office hours this week would be Monday 7:30-9:30 PM at 38-530
to support simulation issues. To reduce waiting time, please
sign up 15 min time slots with the link below. Thank you

Final Project Presentation Material Due 5/14 Tuesday 8 AM


PDF slides for the final project presentation are due by 5/14 Tuesday 8 AM
(regardless of presentation date, which is either on the Tuesday or Thursday).
Please note that this is for presentation material, not for project report.  The
final project report due remains the same on 5/16 Thursday.

Since the 10-min time slot includes Q&A and also transition to a next team,
please submit your PDF slides file to TA (sungwon@mit.edu) before the due on
5/14 Tuesday 8 AM, so that all slides could be preloaded to our presentation laptop.
