Massimo Brandolini is an accomplished inventor and patent holder based in Irvine, CA, with a total of 16 patents to his name. Having worked in prominent companies like Avago Technologies and Broadcom Corporation, he has made a significant contribution to the field of pipelined analog-to-digital converter calibration.
His latest patents reflect his expertise in this field. For instance, one of his patents outlines a method and apparatus for calibrating a pipelined analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that involves adjusting a comparator threshold based on the predetermined conditions when the first output level and the combined output level meet.
Another invention of his involves digital calibration of capacitive mismatches in analog-to-digital converters. This patent outlines a method and apparatus for calibrating a CDAC-based analog-to-digital converter where a predetermined pattern of voltages is applied to the first plates of N capacitors, quantizing the voltage on the second plates of the group of N capacitors, and loading the adjustment value into a lookup table.
Brandolini's colleagues, Young Shin and Leonard Dauphinee, have also worked alongside him to help innovate and patent his ideas. His work and achievements have undoubtedly made an impact on the field of analog-to-digital converter calibration, and it will be fascinating to see where his efforts take him in the future.
