Повний текст джерелаA found state of the art Continuous Time Sigma Delta ADC is modelled and simulated for the presence of nonidealities. A comparison between two Excess Loop Delay compensation techniques is done, the digital differentiation technique was found to have lower swing at the last integrator, and did not need a gain-bandwidth induced delay sensitive summing amplifier. The detrimental influence of clock jitter is shown. Different DAC linearization techniques are discussed, the DWA algorithm was simulated and found to be the best choice for linearizing the DACs. Through high level modeling in Simulink and verification in the Cadence framework specifications for each building block was determined, a final simulation resulted in a SNDR of 76.3 dB.

Повний текст джерелаThis master thesis describes the design of high-speed latched comparator with 6-bit resolution, full scale voltage of 1.6 V and the sampling frequency of 250 MHz. The comparator is designed in a 0.35 9m CMOS process with a supply voltage of 3.3 V.
The comparator is designed for time-interleaved bandpass sigma-delta ADC.
Due to the nature of the target application, it should be possible to turn off the components to avoid the static power consumption. The comparator of this design implements the turn off technique when it is not in use. The settling time of the comparator is less than half the clock cycle which means it does not effect the functionality of the bandpass sigma-delta ADC in terms of speed.
The simulation results are derived using Cadence environment. The results show that the comparator has 6-bit resolution and power consumption of 4.13 mW for the worst-case frequency of 250 MHz. It fulfills all the performance requirements, most of them with large margins.

Повний текст джерелаMore and more signal processing is being transferred to the digital domain to profit from the technological enhancement of digital circuits. Where technology scaling enhances the capabilities of digital circuits, it degrades the performance of analog circuits. However, it is important to note that the impact that technology scaling has on digital circuits is becoming smaller and smaller, which means that, in nanotechnologies, to enhance energy and area efficiency, we can not simply depend on the benefits of this scaling. Although, a share of the efficiency can be obtained from the technology, new circuit architectures and techniques have to be developed to really push the limits of efficiency. In data converters, more specifically analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), a decision can be made: research energy and area efficient analog circuit techniques and architectures that cope with technological scaling issues, or design algorithms that use digital circuitry to assist the poor analog technological performance. The former option is the premise for the work developed in this thesis. The work reported in this thesis explores various design techniques with the purpose of enhancing the power and area efficiency of building blocks mainly to be used in multiplying digital-to-analog converter based ADCs. Therefore, novel analog techniques are developed for the three main blocks of an MDAC-based stage, namely, the flash quantizer, the amplifier, and the switched capacitor network of the MDAC. These techniques include self-biasing and inverter-based design for the flash quantizer and amplifier. Regarding the MDAC, it combines three techniques: unity feedback factor, insensitivity to capacitor mismatch, and current-mode reference shifting. In the second part of this work, the designed amplifier is implemented and experimentally characterized demonstrating its practical feasibility and performance. The final part of this work explores the design and implementation of a medium-low resolution high speed pipeline ADC incorporating all the developed circuits. Experimental results validate the feasibility of the techniques and demonstrate the attractiveness in terms of power dissipation and reduced area.

Повний текст джерелаThe rapid growth of wireless communications and the massive use of wireless end-user equipments have created a demand for low-cost, low-power and low-area devices with tight specifications imposed by standards. The advances in CMOS technology allows, nowadays, designers to implement circuits that work at high-frequencies, thus, allowing the complete implementation of RF front ends in a single chip. In this work, a co-design strategy for the implementation of a fully integrated CMOS receiver for use in the ISM band is presented. The main focus is given to the Mixer and the ADC blocks of the presented architecture. The traditional approach used in RF design requires 50 matching buffers and networks and AC coupling capacitors between Mixer inputs and LNA and LO outputs. The codesign strategy avoids the use of DC choke inductors for Mixer biasing, because it is possible to use the DC level from the output of the LNA and the LO to provide bias to the Mixer. Moreover, since the entire circuit is in the same chip and the Mixer inputs are transistors gates, we should consider voltage instead of power and avoid the 50 matching networks. The proposed ADC architecture relies on a 4-bit flash converter. The main goals are to achieve low-power and high sampling frequency. To meet these goals, parametric amplification based on MOS varactors is applied to reduce the offset voltage of the comparators, avoiding the traditional and power-consuming approach of active pre-amplification gain stages.

As the world continues to do more and more of its signal processing digitally, there is an ever increasing need for high speed high precision signal processors in consumer applications such as digital photography. Technological progress in CMOS fabrication has allowed chips to be made on nano scale processes, but this still comes at a steep price. Especially in chips for which analog components are a priority over digital components, some of the benefits of using nano scale processes diminish, such as smaller area. In these cases, it is worth investigating whether the same performance can be achieved with larger feature size, and therefore, cheaper processes. To that end, a three-stage comparator circuit for use in a digital camera SAR ADC has been ported from its original 65nm process to a 0.11[mu]m process. Its design has been analyzed and performance presented here. Additionally, an alternative latch-only architecture for the comparator has been designed and analyzed. In 0.11[mu]m the three-stage comparator operates at the same speed, 13% lower RMS noise contributing 0.9 bits difference, and 11% higher power than the original in 65nm. More noteworthy, the 0.11[mu]m latch-only comparator operates at 40% higher speed, equivalent noise, and 72% lower power.

Повний текст джерелаThe goals for most of today’s receiver system are sampling at high-speed, with high resolution and with as few errors as possible. This master thesis describes the design of a high-speed sampling system with"state-of-the-art"components available on the market. The system is designed with a parallel Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture, also called time interleaving. It aims to increase the sampling speed of the system. The system described in this report uses four 12-bits ADCs in parallel. Each ADC can sample at 125 MHz and the total sampling speed will then theoretically become 500 Ms/s. The system has been implemented and manufactured on a printed circuit board (PCB). Up to four boards can be connected in parallel to get 2 Gs/s theoretically.
In an approach to increase the systems performance even further, a timing error estimation algorithm will be used on the sampled data. This algorithm estimates the timing errors that occur when sampling with non-uniform time interval between samples. After the estimations, the sampling clocks can be adjusted to correct the errors.
This thesis is concerning some ADC theory, system design and PCB implementation. It also describes how to test and measure the system’s performance. No measurement results are presented in this thesis because measurements will be done after this project. The last part of the thesis discusses future improvementsto achieve even higher performance.

Повний текст джерелаWireless front-end receivers of last generation mobile devices operate at least two frequency translations before I/Q demodulation. Frequency translation increases the system complexity, introducing several problems associated with the mixers (dynamic range limitation, noise injection from the local oscillator, etc.). Herein, the position of the analog-to-digital interface in the receiver chain can play an important role. Moving the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) as near as possible to the antenna, permits to simplify the overall system design and to alleviate requirements associated with analog functions (filters, mixers). These currently requirements have led to a great effort in designing improved architectures as Continuous-Time Delta-Sigma ADCs. The behavioural modeling this converter, although the circuit design of the main blocks has been the subject of this thesis. The use of an advanced design methodology, allowing the mixed simulation at different levels of abstraction, allows to validate both the circuit design and the overall system conversion. Using a multi-feedback architecture associated with a multi-bit quantizer, the continuous-time Bandpass Delta-Sigma converter achieves a SNR of about 76 dB in a wide band of 20MHz

Повний текст джерелаThis work has shown that the contribution of 3D integration technology allows to overcome the limitations imposed by monolithic technology on the electrical performances (coupling and consumption) and on the physical implementation (area of the pixel) of imagers. An in-depth analysis of the 3D integration technology has shown that the most suitable 3D integration technologies for the integration of the circuits at the pixel level are: 3D wafer level and 3D sequential construction. The technology chosen for this study is the 3D wafer level integration technology. This allows us to connect 2 wafers by thermocompression bonding and to have an interconnection or “bonding point” par pixel between wafers. The study of the architecture CAN at the pixel level showed that there are two limits in the pixel: the construction area and the coupling between the analog and digital part «digital coupling». Its implementation in 3D technology allows the construction area to be increased by 100% and the digital coupling reduced by 70%. It has been implemented a tool for computing the parasitic elements of 3D structures. The study of high speed imagers has allowed the use of this technology to be extended. The "burst" imager was mainly studied. This kind of imager’s architecture can dissociate the image acquisition from the output part. The main limit, in monolithic technology, is the size of the columns (pixels to memories). For a high rate of image acquisition, a high current consumption is required. Its implementation in 3D technology allowed to put the memories below the pixels. The studies carried out for this change (reduction of the column to an interconnection between wafers) reduced the total consumption by 90% and increased the acquisition time of the images by 184%, compared to its monolithic peer

A low-noise phase-detector-based (PD-based) comparator is proposed for subrange analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in this thesis. It can reduce the thermal-induced noise as well as the probability of the metastability. The 10-bit subrange ADC is composed of a 3.9-bit flash ADC and a 7-bit SAR ADC. The proposed ADC was fabricated in a 40-nm LP CMOS technology. The ADC achieves 54.41-dB SNDR at 160MS/s under a 1.1V supply voltage and consumes 2.7mW. The figure-of-merit (FOM) is 39.4 fJ/conversion-step. The active area is 0.0475 mm2.

Analog-to-digital converter (ADC) has to operate at ultra-high speed with low to medium resolution in the next-generation wireless communication systems. A 6-bit 4.5 GS/s time-interleaved SAR ADC in 40 nm CMOS general–process (GP) technology is proposed. By combining the front-end input buffers and the grouping technique into the time-interleaved architecture, the input capacitance effectively decreases and the available settling of input buffers increases. The proposed 16-channel time-interleaved SAR ADC achieves the performance of high-speed sampling rate and high input bandwidth. A zero-crossing detection technique is employed to correct timing skew among sub-ADCs. Gain and offset mismatches between sub-ADCs are calibrated in the digital domain. Asynchronous processing and monotonic capacitor switching technique used in the single-channel SAR ADC make the sub-ADC high speed and power-efficiency. Furthermore, AWCA technique solves the dynamic offset problem of the comparator in the sub-ADC. The measurement results show that ADC exhibits DNL of +0.17/-0.29 LSB and INL of +0.20/-0.18 LSB at 4 GS/s with Fin of 50 MHz. SNDR and SFDR are 32.15 dB and 41.04 dB at 4.5 GS/s with Fin of 1 GHz. The power consumption is 24.9 mW at 1.2 V supply voltage. As a result, the FoM (Power/2ENOB/FS) is 159 fJ/conversion-step. The whole chip including pads occupies 1.275 mm2 while area of core circuit is 0.195 mm2.

This thesis presents a 1.2V 10-bit CMOS two-channel time-interleaved pipelined ADC in a standard 0.13-μm CMOS process. For high conversion speed, the first stage with divided residue gain is proposed to increase the feedback factor of the MDAC. In order to reduce the mismatch-effects, opamp-sharing technique is applied between two channels, and the proposed clock generator is designed to suppress the sampling-time mismatch. According to the measurement results, the prototype ADC exhibits a DNL of -0.49/+0.43LSB and an INL of -1.05/+0.86LSB at the sampling rate of 50MS/s. For 1MHz input frequency, the SNDR and SFDR achieve 56.53dB and 68.38dB at 50MS/s. The SNDR and SFDR are reduced to 37.63dB and 41.61dB at 250MS/s for 1MHz input. The power consumption is 106mW at the conversion rate of 250MS/s. The chip with pads occupies 1.3mm2. Chapter 1 introduces the pipelined ADC architecture. Chapter 2 discusses the channel mismatch effects in the time-interleaved ADC system. A proposed architecture to increase conversion speed and to reduce mismatch effects is given in Chapter 3. Detail circuit implementation and simulation result are shown in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 presents the test setup and measurement results. Finally, conclusions are summarized in Chapter 6.

Compared with general redistribution capacitor DAC which has to charge each capacitor under sampling condition, DAC proposed in this research charges only one capacitor and effectively promotes the speed. As to the reference voltage, DAC takes only half of the general one, and obviously reduces the power consumption. According to the simulation result, the designed SAR ADC can operate at 2MHz. The Signal-to-Noise and Distortion Ratio is 59.95dB when the input frequency is 100KMz and the effective number of bit is 9.67 bit. The Integral Nonlinearity is 0.7LSB. The Differential Nonlinearity is 0.4LSB. The power dissipation is 1.8mW. The chip layout area is 1030um*1030um.

In this work, we propose a novel test scheme for high speed digital-to-analog converter (DAC) based on under-sampling technique. The under-sampling technique is constructed by a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) modulator. The DAC output signal is modulated through a low frequency sinusoidal carrier and converted to low speed pulse signal. The pulse width of low speed pulse signal can be measured using conventional logic analyzer and the nonlinearity error of DAC can be estimated by analyzing the variation of pulse width. An experiment an 8-bit 50~300MS/s DAC has shown very good results and only requires a set of instruments which have sample rate lower than that of the circuit-under-test (CUT).

A 10-bit current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) has been proposed for high speed communication systems. This study is used for the transmitter (Tx) of the powerline communication (PLC) analog-front-end (AFE), and it reaches the standard of the HomePlug AV2. And the DAC has also been combined with the line driver as the transmitter of the whole system. In order to improve static performance, we use 6-4 segmented decoding architecture to get good matching and reduce the glitch. Furthermore, we implemented our current source array as common centroid type and adding dummy current sources around the array to reduce the mismatch between edge and center. For dynamic performance consideration, the proposed DAC uses a technique as digital random-return-to-zero (DRRZ) [10][11] to achieve good performance for high speed sampling frequency. The test chip was fabricated in TSMC 90 nm CMOS technology and occupied 0.42 mm2 for active area. The supplies for the analog and digital circuits are 2.5V and 1.2V. The maximum INL and DNL are 0.8 LSB and 0.3 LSB respectively. The SFDR is up to 40.09 dB for 1.25GS/s of Nyquist-rate sampling. The power consumption is 58mW.

Recently, hundreds MS/s to 1GS/s medium resolution Analog-to-Digital Convertors (ADCs) are used extensively in applications, for the purpose to replace the front end of the receiver. This thesis proposed a high-speed and energy-efficient time-interleaved subranging SAR ADC that utilizing settling time relief technique [1] to improve overall circuit arrangement by using two 5-bit coarse ADCs to assist 10-bit four channels fine SAR ADC architecture. To solve the problem that skew mismatch within sub-ADCs in subranging architecture, we propose a low-skew bootstrap circuit without additional calibration circuit. This time-interleaved SAR ADC can achieve the conversion rate of 1GS/s with near 220 MHz input frequency, and 500MS/s with Nyquist rate, SNDR are 49.51 dB and 51.45 dB, respectively. The power consumption is 5.899mW and 3.0245mW, respectively. And, getting the good FoM of 24.15 fJ/c.-s. and 19.83 fJ/c.-s. The active area is 0.0459 mm2. It is suitable for the energy-efficient wireless communication and Ethernet network application.

SAR ADC, with simple structure and energy efficiency becomes one of the recent choices in battery-endurance concerned devices and data acquisition systems. In this thesis, we propose a “voltage-jumping” SAR architecture operating at 50MS/s in 0.18um that is area efficient and achieves high speed. The circuit solves the MSB DAC settling error physically and hence uses only 1/4 of total capacitor array area compared to the conventional structure without shrinking the size of unit capacitor. Also, the switching energy is smallest because the most critical MSB switching does not consume power and the rest of bits are switched monotonically with smaller capacitance. As for measurement results, 0.1MHz input sinusoidal signal is fed into the ADC operating at 50MS/s, 40MS/s and 25MS/s, and the SNDR, SFDR and ENOB of the ADC are 35.31 dB, 45.81 and 5.57 bits for 50MS/s, 33.90 dB, 41.58 and 5.34 bits for 40MS/s and 33.82 dB, 39.71 and 5.33 bits for 25MS/s. The post-sim power consumption and the FoM of the ADC in 0.18um at 50MS/s are 2.3mW and 63 fJ/convstep; whereas the power consumption and the FoM of the measured circuit are 2.5mW and 1 pJ/convstep. In future works, the problems for unsatisfied measurement in this 0.18um chip discovered are all rectified in 90nm. The post-sim 90nm “voltage-jumping” SAR ADC operating at 100MS/s with 1.3mW is present. Also, in order to accelerate the speed of ADC, a new idea of two-stage pipelined SAR ADC is launched to prevent the use of OP-amp to deliver signal to the next stage.

A two-step ADC is proposed for high speed application. The architecture of the coarse ADC is a flash-type ADC, and the fine ADC is an interpolation ADC. The 8-bit resolution of the ADC is divided into 3.36-bit in coarse ADC and 5-bit in fine ADC with 12% overlap. Comparing with conventional method, this work reduces 6 transition points in coarse ADC to decrease the loading of T/H and improve speed. However, less offset tolerance is required in coarse ADC comparators. Although offset cancellation techniques can be employed to relax the requirement, large parasitic capacitance would reduce the cancellation effectiveness. Detailed analysis for differential mode and single ended offset compensation methods will be given to predict the compensation error and to achieve the required offset constraint without over-designing.

This thesis proposes a 6-bit high speed and low power flash ADC with sampling period of 900ps and this circuit is utilized in the receiver of MB-OFDM UWB system. In low power circuit design, the design method proposed in this thesis has three effects: (1)reduce the charge current of dynamic regenerative comparator and dynamic logic circuit, (2)lower down the load capacitance of each circuit, (3)reduce the number of output logic transitions in digital circuits. The circuits proposed in this thesis can largely reduce the power consumption of flash ADC in the condition of not seriously affect the circuit operation speed. In the subcircuits of flash ADC, this thesis improves the performance of comparator array and thermometer code to binary code encoder. For comparator array, the proposed method is to apply a lower supply voltage to reduce the power consumption of comparator array. In the circuit of encoder, in addition to apply a lower supply voltage, an inverter array is also utilized to lower down the load capacitance of comparator array and reduce the number of output logic transitions in 1-of-N encoder. The circuit simulations in this thesis are based on TSMC CMOS 0.18µm process, and the simulation tool is Spectre. The simulation result shows that the proposed flash ADC can operate correctly in the sampling period of 900ps. As this circuit is operated in the sampling frequency of 1GHz, its power consumption is only 18.28mW.

We design the Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) with Current-Steering architecture to achieve high-speed specification and propose a novel calibration technique in this thesis. The technique could directly suppress the differential nonlinearity (DNL) and integral nonlinearity (INL) and furthermore lift up dynamic performance to increase the linearity of whole DAC effectively. By this technique, we have attained the destination of high speed, high resolution and low power consumption because of successfully improving the drawback caused by requiring large scale area of unit source to drop random error. The high-speed 12-bit Digital-to-Analog Converter, whose maximum sampling rate is 400MS/s, is implemented in TSMC CMOS process. New digital calibration circuit can keep the performance in an outstanding level even with a dramatically slight unit source area and lack of specific output stage [17][18].

Along with the advance in consumer electronics and communication technologies, high speed data converters were applied to many applications. The data converter testing is one of the most challenging problems in the area of analog and mixed-signal testing. As an interface between digital systems and analog world, the digital to analog converter (DAC) is one of the most widely used mixed-signal integrated circuits. Conventional DAC test methods require measurement equipments with higher speed than the circuit under test to sample and characterize the performance of the circuit accurately. Consequently, the design and manufacturing of instruments is really a challenge and extremely difficult for those high speed DACs. In addition, even worse, interference and noise in test environment also make test result distortedly. To enhance the testability, built-in self-test (BIST) is the promising way to measure analog signal in chip accurately. However, due to the heat originated from continuous high speed operation of the circuit under test, the characteristics and functions of BIST circuit may drift according to the temperature variation of chip. For advanced fabrication process with shorter transistor channel length, the temperature dependence is more serious because of acute impact on carrier mobility and threshold voltage. The BIST circuit could be out of controlled or unavailable for the worst. For this reason, this dissertation presents a BIST scheme for estimating the nonlinearity errors of DAC and employs well-developed low thermal sensitivity processing circuits to enhance the reliability of testing results as well. Through applying dual-under-sampling approach and pulse-width-modulation (PWM), the DAC output signal is modulated into low-speed narrow-width pulse streams. The nonlinearity errors of DAC are proportional to pulse width of modulated signal which can be quantified as digital representation. To enhance the accuracy of modulators for PWM, a current-mode comparator is proposed instead of voltage-mode comparator. A cyclic time-to-digital converter (TDC) is also proposed to measure the pulse width of signal on chip. All of the crucial circuits are designed with temperature compensation technique, so that the measurement error can be reduced when the temperature varies with continuous operation of DAC at high speed test.

This thesis presents a high effective resolution bandwidth (ERBW) high speed asynchronous successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with differential input signals. This ADC is designed as the sub-ADC that constructs a time-interleaved ADC. Therefore, the range of ERBW is much considered. In addition, parallel signal paths are used in the control logic circuit to decrease the delay time of producing triggering signals, which enlarges the room for speeding up the sampling rate of the ADC compared with the conventional design. Chip sarf2_32 that was fabricated under TSMC 90nm RF process was measured 6.7 bits at low frequency while it was measured 3.8 bits at high frequency. As the input frequency goes higher, the ADC''s performance gets worse. This problem can be solved with the use of cross-couple MOS in the sample and hold circuit. The measured power consumption is 4.5mW, and the FOM is 321fJ/conversion-step. Fabricated under TSMC 90nm GUTM process, chip sarf2_33 was measured 5.6 bits at low frequency and it was measured around 4.8 bits at high frequency. The results of measurement are similar to that of FF corner simulation. The measured power consumption is 5.61mW, and the FOM is 692fJ/conversion-step. Source followers are used at the input as input buffers for sarf2_34. Above 7 bits of ENOB were simulated under SS, TT, and FF corner from low frequency to high frequency. The simulated power consumption is 5.8mW, and the FOM is 206fJ/conversion-step. This chip has been taped out under TSMC 90nm GUTM process.

Current-steering DACs have intrinsic high-speed characteristics and are commonly used in wide-band communication systems today. However, element mismatch will cause harmonic distortion and thus limits their performance. This thesis proposes a new algorithm called Random Multiple Data Weighted Averaging (RMDWA) to reduce harmonic distortions due to element mismatch. RMDWA can be used to randomize tones such that spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) and multi-tone power tone (MPTR) are increased. In addition, low-complexity digital circuit used to implement RMDWA algorithm is presented in this thesis. Performance equations and quantitative performance analyses of RMDWA are also derived. A 16-bit high-speed current-steering DAC is implemented in this thesis. The DAC includes a 6-bit thermometer-decoded MSB with RMDWA algorithm, a 5-bit thermometer-decoded upper LSB (ULSB) and a 5-bit binary-decoded lower LSB (LLSB). The new QN rotated-walk switching scheme is also proposed to obtain high accuracy without trimming or tuning. QN rotated-walk switching scheme can effectively compensate 1st–order and 2nd–order errors caused by current sources mismatch. In addition, a new latch is designed to increase conversion speed and reduce noise. The post-layout simulation shows that it can achieve 102/94/84dBc SFDRs under a 40-MHz clock rate with 780KHz/5MHz/18MHz signal frequencies, respectively. With 2.7V analog and 2.2V digital supplies, it has power consumption of 112mW for a clock rate of 40 MHz. The DAC is fabricated with TSMC 0.25um single-poly, five-metal process. The active die area is 1.9mm x 0.9mm.

This thesis presents a high speed successive approximation register (SAR) analog to digital converter (ADC) with input buffer and the study of non-ideal situation. The design purpose of this SAR ADC is to use it as one of sub ADCs for a Time-Interleaved ADC. The sample rate of this SAR ADC is 166MS/s, and the highest input frequency is 1.2GHz. In order to strengthen the driving power, we add a buffer to the front end. Last, but not least, considering the characteristic impedance in the high frequency will affect the input signal, we improved the PCB layout design. On the other hand, for minimizing the delay time after the signal triggered, the ADC’s control logic path is designed as parallel, which can improve the performance. Fabricated under TSMC 90nm GUTM process, sarf_35 has the ENOB of 6.09 bit when the input frequency is 10MHz and 3.48 bit when input frequency is 1.2GHz. After the improvement, sarf_36 has a higher ENOB at 10MHz, which is 7.028bit, and 5.25bit at 1.2GHz.

In this thesis, a 10-bit binary search assisted time-interleaved SAR ADC operating in 250Ms/s sampling rate with 1.2 supply voltage is presented. The ADC adopt TSMC 90nm process and can be used for receiving in front-end chip of wireless communication system. In circuit design, we take BS-ADC and SAR-ADC’s advantage for the requirement of high sampling rate and low power consumption and separate ADC in two stages. The first stage is Binary-search ADC which converts high five bit at 250Ms/s sampling rate. Due to additional switching circuit to select correct reference voltage, the need of comparators in BS-ADC can be substantially reduced. The second stage is two-channel SAR ADCs which convert low five bit. Each channel operates at 125Ms/s. In binary-weight capacitor array, we give half-reference voltage for LSB capacitor switching with monotonic switching method. Compared to conventional binary-weight capacitor array, the proposed architecture can reduce total capacitance by 75%. The entire architecture is designed in fully-differential circuit to reduce common mode noise and improve the linearity of the circuit.
