A 15-b 1-Msamplels digitally self-calibrated pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is presented. A radix 1.93, 1 b per stage design is employed. The digital self-calibration accounts for capacitor mismatch, comparator offset, charge injection, finite op-amp gain, and capacitor nonlinearity contributing to DNL. A THD of -90 dB was measured with a 9.8756-kHz sine-wave input. The DNL was measured to be within 2~0.25 LSB at 15 b, and the INL was measured to be within f1.25 LSB at 15 b. The die area is 9.3 mm x 8.3 mm and operates on f4-V power supply with 1.8-W power dissipation. The ADC is fabricated in an 11-V, 4-GHz, 2.4-pm BiCMOS process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
