Summary

This chapter treats two important steps in electronic sensor design. The first is the passage from functional blocks to lumped model electronic circuits. In this approach noise will be no more associated with functional blocks, but with circuit topology and electronic device elements. The second step is to analyze the effects of the readout mode on noise, emphasizing the differences between continuous and discrete-time approaches. Finally, we discuss some tradeoffs related to bandwidth and resolution in acquisition chains.
