In most modern electronic systems, information is processed and stored in digital format.  However, analog interfaces are still necessary to interface with “real world” signals and often present a bottleneck in the overall system.  This presentation will provide an overview of recent advances and trends in the design of analog-digital interface circuits from an application standpoint.  It will include examples from the areas of data communication, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), bio-medical instrumentation, structural health monitoring, and large-area electronics.
