Area-efficient readout with 14-bit SAR-ADC for CMOS image sensors

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
This paper proposes a readout design for CMOS image sensors. It has been squeezed into a 7.5um pitch under a 0.28um 1P3M technology. The ADC performs one 14-bit conversion in only 1.5us and targets a theoretical DNL feature about +1.3/-1 at 14-bit ...

eIF1 modulates the recognition of suboptimal translation initiation sites and steers gene expression via uORFs [PDF]

, 2017
Alternative translation initiation mechanisms such as leaky scanning and reinitiation potentiate the polycistronic nature of human transcripts. By allowing for reprogrammed translation, these mechanisms can mediate biological responses to stimuli.
