Abstract

Nowadays, non-destructive methods for testing biological tissues are becoming trendy and more significant in lots of cheap and fast monitoring health, and environmental applications. These techniques are endeavouring to present hand-held and cheap devices’ for matching the growing market needs. Innovation in measurement techniques, signal processing algorithms, and circuit design is needed for achieving this goal.

The achievement in portable bio-devices is mainly driven by the continuous downscaling of CMOS as mainstream semiconductor technology till reaching FinFET, MBC FET, and Gate-All-around FET, enabling efficient improvements in terms of processing speed, memory capacity, integration density, and power consumption.

Another aspect pushing the economic success of CMOS is the proceeding integration on a functional level, enabling further miniaturization and price reduction. Digital, memory, analog, and mixed-signal blocks, even the radio-frequency (RF) front-end are integrated into so-called systems on chip (SOC) or systems in package (SIP).

Especially in consumer electronics with high volume and high complexity, there is a strong trend for SOC integration and single-chip solutions. Semiconductor companies realized that in this business field SOC integration is an important differentiation factor and value adder. The use of the most recent CMOS technologies and smart design techniques is a prerequisite for further improvements in terms of functionality, area, and power consumption.
