The current trend in the world of digital communications is the design of versatile devices that may operate using several different communication standards in order to increase the number of locations for which a particular device may be used. The signal is quantized early on in the reciever path by Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs), which allows the rest of the signal processing to be done by low complexity, low power digital circuits. For this reason, it is advantageous to create an architecture that can quantize different bandwidths at different frequencies to suit several different communication protocols. This thesis outlines the design …
