Recent ADC Conventer Make Faster Internet Traffic

Team and IBM Microelectronics Systems Laboratory of EPFL has developed the latest generation of analogue-to-digital converter (ADC). The invention allows the transfer of data over the Internet more quickly.
Image files, audio and video can be sent faster with less power requirements. The discovery was announced at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference in San Francisco, the U.S. recently.
Files are sent over the Internet first converted into digital information in a serial binary format consists of zero and one that represents the electrical signal. But today's file sizes are expected to grow 60% per year to make the existing converter technology overwhelmed.
"Most of the ADC is not currently designed for large data size it is today," said Martin Schmatz, Head of Systems Department IBM Research Center EPFL as reported by the official website on Wednesday (27/03/2013).
The technology developed by IBM and EPFL claimed to be able to convert the analog billion per second with a total electricity consumption of only 3.1 milliwatts (mW).
Electricity consumption is 30 times smaller than the power consumption of the phone is in standby mode. Such conditions can increase the speed of Internet connection up to 100 gigabits per second or two times larger than the current connection.
