Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent decades, the emergence of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and smart sensors applications have necessitated the development of energy efficient and high-performance edge sensing/computing circuits. A battery-powered IoT sensor node typically consists of power management circuits, analog front-end, data converters, computing macro., etc. Given the requirement of less power and relatively low precision, it is feasible to consider analog and mixed-signal computing for low-SNR applications, which can be more efficient than digital methods. Thus, mixed-signal computing methods have been garnering increasing attention.

This Special Issue aims to publish the latest findings, new research developments, and future trends and innovations in the design, estimation, control, and optimization of low-power analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits, and their applications in the Internet-of-Things devices. We welcome theoretical and experimental studies, as well as review papers.

The submitted papers may focus on, but not necessarily be limited to, the following areas:

  • Low-power amplifiers;
  • Low-power data converters;
  • Analog and mixed-signal computing circuits;
  • In-memory computing circuits;
  • Low-power convolutional neural networks;
  • Artificial Intelligence edge;
  • In-memory computing (IMC);
  • Deep neural network (DNN);
  • Low-power digital circuits.

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. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
