Influence of gate tunneling currents on switched capacitor integrators [PDF]
In order to achieve a higher level of integration in modern VLSI systems, not only the lateral geometrical dimensions have to be scaled. Lowering the supply voltage also requires scaling down the oxide thickness of the transistors.

SNDR sensitivity analysis for cascaded ΣΔ modulators [PDF]
Cascade, single and multi-bit, ΣΔ architectures provide stable, high order quantization noise shaping used in high resolution A/D conversion. One major disadvantage of cascaded ΣΔ topologies is the extreme SNDR sensitivity to gain mismatch between the ...

A Depolarizing Leak in Sodium Bicarbonate Cotransporter NBCe1 Causes Brain Edema
ABSTRACT Objectives SLC4A4 encodes electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter NBCe1, prominently expressed in kidney and brain. Recessive loss‐of‐function variants in SLC4A4 cause proximal renal tubular acidosis, no brain edema. In the brain, NBCe1 is expressed by astrocytes, where it regulates pH and mediates astrocyte volume changes.
