About this title

Review

Aus den Rezensionen:  “... Studierende finden in dem aus didaktischer Sicht gut strukturierten Buch sowohl klar formulierte Grundlagen ... als auch spezifische technologische Details verschiedener Wandler und Prinzipien. Ein ... Kapitel mit Übungen hilft mit, sich intensiver mit dem Gelesenen auseinanderzusetzen ... Erfahrene ... werden das Buch als Nachschlagewerk für praktische Hinweise und für die mathematischen Beschreibungen schätzen. Eine ausführliche, verständliche Übersicht.“ (in: Bulletin VSE/VSE, 6/May/2011, Vol. 102, Issue 5, S. 94)

About the Author

Marcel Pelgrom received his B.EE, M.Sc, and PhD from Twente University, Enschede, The Netherlands. In 1979, he joined Philips Research Laboratories, where his research has covered topics such as Charge Coupled Devices, MOS matching properties, analog-to-digital conversion, digital image correlation, and various analog building block techniques. He has headed several project teams, and was a team leader for high-speed analog-to-digital conversion. From 1996 until 2003, he was a department head for Mixed-Signal Electronics.

 

In addition to various activities concerning industry-academic relations, he is a research fellow in research on the edge of design and technology.

 

In 2003, he spent a sabbatical in Stanford University where he served as a consulting professor. Since 2007, he has been a member of the technical staff at NXP Semiconductors. Dr. Pelgrom was an IEEE Distinguished Lecturer, has written over 40 publications, three book chapters, and holds 28 US patents. He currently lectures in the Philips Training Department at Twente University  and for MEAD Inc.
