Abstract:This article describes the design and performance analysis of a charge domain mixed-signal multiply-accumulator (MAC) using RDAC, CDAC, and SAR-ADC with an 8-bit resolution for input, weight, and output. The arithmetic accuracy is mainly determined by the ADC, and the gain error has a significant impact. The mismatches and thermal noises of the RDAC and the CDAC are averaged by the number of multiply-accumulate units m connected to one ADC. As a result, if m is large enough, mismatches and thermal noises have … Show more
