Hall of fame: ISSCC FOM


This is the hall of fame for achievements related to the “ISSCC” or “Walden” FOM defined as:

F_{A1} = \dfrac{P}{{2}^{ENOB}\times f_{s}}

It will list current and previous world record holders according to my ADC survey. Current state-of-the-art is found at the top of the list. For more about different figures of merit, check out the “Generic FOM classes” page. An overview of current state-of-the-art for more than one type of FOM is found on the FOM-o-meter page.
