Abstract

Today's interfaces between digital and "real world" analog signals rely mainly on complex analog circuit components that strictly limit achievable power efficiency and throughput. Digitally assisted analog circuits can exploit digital circuits' high density and low energy per computation to enable a new generation of interface electronics based on minimal-precision, low-complexity analog building blocks.
