Abstract: 
The integration of MATLAB in designing and analyzing pipeline Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) addresses the complexities of next-generation communication systems. This study reviews literature to identify trends and challenges in high-speed ADC designs. Mastery of MATLAB and its toolboxes, like Simulink and Signal Processing, is essential for advanced ADC modeling and analysis. Key challenges include maintaining accuracy with diminishing supply voltages in modern semiconductors. The study explores incorporating high-voltage analog components and develops strategies for superior accuracy using low-voltage transistors. MATLAB and pipeline architecture are crucial for advancing ADC design, providing innovative solutions for next-gen communication systems.
