Then, to explain the performance of SET-based ADC structures, we explore the sensitivity of converter section of these structures to the inherent periodic oscillation characteristics. By simulating two different temperatures of 100[Formula: see text]K and 300[Formula: see text]K, we demonstrate that for proper performance of converter section of the SET-based ADCs, SETs must have inherent Coulomb oscillations with the same and high peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) and equal Coulomb peak spacing (i.e., equal [Formula: see text]. The Coulomb oscillation characteristics of the room-temperature-operating silicon SET show the Coulomb oscillations with unequal PVCRs and unequal Coulomb peak spacings (i.e., unequal [Formula: see text]. As a result, it can be seen that the room-temperature-operating SET-based ADCs never have a suitable output. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218126618502171","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,6]],"date-time":"2018-03-06T03:31:57Z","timestamp":1520307117000},"page":"1850217","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Evaluation of Room-Temperature Performance of Ultra-Small Single-Electron Transistor-Based Analog-to-Digital Convertors"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"Mostafa","family":"Miralaie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Engineering, Lorestan University, P.
