Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs) play critical roles in cutting-edge scientific research and engineering applications, such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, brain–machine interface (BMI), 5G/6G and satellite communications, electric vehicle, etc. The massive channel integration of analog/mixed-signal circuits is always required in applications with large arrays; furthermore, the low-power design of analog/mixed-signal IC is key for a power-efficient system, which is driven by global carbon reduction targets. All these requirements posed by applications set new difficulties for analog/mixed-signal IC design. This Special Issue, entitled “Analog/Mixed-Signal Integrated Circuit Design”, is being launched to discuss the emerging analog/mixed-signal IC design challenges and demonstrate innovative designs in specific applications. Contributions should include systematic circuit design considerations and at least transistor-level simulation results; measurement results based on tapeout are preferred. The topic of this Special Issue includes but is not limited to the following:
- Analog IC, including operational amplifiers, bandgap references, comparators, biomedical AFE, and sensor interfaces;
- Data converter, including ADC, DAC, TDC, DTC, and CDC;
- Power management, including DC-DC, LDO, and energy harvesting;
- Clock generation, including oscillator, VCO, PLL, clock data recovery, and Serdes.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Low Power Electronics and Applications is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
