## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents a dynamic predictive sampling (DPS) based analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that provides a non-uniform sampling of input analog continuous-time signals. The processing unit generates a dynamic prediction of the input signal using two prior-quantized samplings to compute digital values of an upper threshold and a lower threshold. The digital threshold values are converted to analog thresholds to form a tracking window. A comparator compares the input analog signal with the tracking window to determine if the prediction is successful. A counter records timestamps between the unsuccessful predictions, which are the selected sampling points for quantization. No quantization is performed for successfully predicted sampling points so that the data throughput and power can be saved. The proposed circuits were designed as a 10-bit ADC using 0.18 micro CMOS process sampling at 1 kHz. The results show that the proposed system can achieve a data compression factor of 6.17 and a power saving factor of 31% compared to a Nyquist rate SAR ADC for ECG monitoring.
