Design of a high sensitivity and low power ultrasound receiver with a high-resolution SAR ADC for photoacoustic sensing and imaging

Photoacoustic (PA) imaging and sensing based on optical excitation and acoustic detection are emerging recently. The main issue of the PA systems is the poor SNR at the output of the sensors. The power consumption and size of the receiver are also crucial for the systems. Thus, several techniques ar...
