Introduction
摘要
This chapter introduces the overall theme of the book, focusing on the need for high-performance Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) in space applications. It outlines the limitations of conventional ADC designs in radiation environments and presents the key challenges in developing radiation-tolerant solutions. By highlighting the gap between performance and robustness, the chapter sets the foundation for the research presented in the following chapters, where advanced design techniques for reliable ADC operation under radiation conditions are explored.
