Abstract:This study demonstrates the noise analysis of a replica driving MDAC architecture, which is verified by implementing a 12-bit 200 MS/s replica driving pipelined analogue-to-digital converter (ADC). Based on the noise design strategy with the target effective number of bits = 10.5-bit, the overall dynamic performance degradation by KT/C noise and thermal noise by an amplifier is alleviated by removing the front-end sample-and-hold (S/H) circuit, and the transconductance (g m) of the inner source follower is max… Show more
