High-Speed Multibit Delta-Sigma ADCs with On-Line Digital Error Correction
Multibit delta-sigma modulators are widely used in recent analog-to-digital converter (ADC) implementations [1, Chapter 8]. Due to their improved stability, they can achieve the same high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) with lower order modulator and lower oversampling ratio (OSR), i.e. higher speed, than their singlebit counterparts. Also, the use of a multibit feedback relaxes slew-rate and settl...
متن کاملMultibit Adc with Mixed-mode Dac Error Correction
A mixed-mode error correction scheme is described for multibit ADCs with resistor-string and switched-capacitor DACs. The correction circuit uses a simple calibration ADC and digital filtering. It operates in the background and remains effective even for very low oversampling ratios.
متن کاملCapacitor Mismatch Compensation for the Quasi-Passive Switched-Capacitor DAC
A method to eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch for a switched-capacitor DAC is described. The method consists of two elements. The first element is the use of a compensating switching algorithm, which can eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch only for some digital input values. The second element is that each digital word is written as the sum of two other words for which the capac...
متن کاملRobust Cyclic ADC Architecture Based on β-Expansion
In this paper, a robust cyclic ADC architecture with βencoder is proposed and circuit scheme using switched-capacitor (SC) circuit is introduced. Different from the conventional binary ADC, the redundancy of proposed cyclic ADC outputs β-expansion code and has an advantage of error correction. This feature makes ADC robust against the offset of comparator capacitor mismatch and finite DC gain o...
متن کاملA second-order multi-bit RD modulator with on-line calibration and digital correction of the digital-to-analog converter mismatches
This paper presents a novel technique for online calibration and digital correction of the mismatches among the elements of the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) used in the feedback loop of multi-bit sigma–delta (RD) modulators. The proposed method, with an extremely limited amount of additional circuitry, allows the mismatches among the elements of the DAC to be accurately measured and correc...
