Improving adaptive resolution of analog to digital converters using least squares mean method
This paper presents an adaptive digital resolution improvement method for extrapolating and recursive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The presented adaptively enhanced ADC (AE-ADC) digitally estimates the digital equivalent of the input signal by utilizing an adaptive digital filter (ADF). The least mean squares (LMS) algorithm also determines the coefficients of the ADF block. In this sch...

متن کاملAnalysis of Integral Nonlinearity in Radix-4 Pipelined Analog-to-Digital Converters
In this paper an analytic approach to estimate the nonlinearity of radix-4 pipelined analog-to-digital converters due to the circuit non-idealities is presented. Output voltage of each stage is modeled as sum of the ideal output voltage and non-ideal output voltage (error voltage), in which non-ideal output voltage is created by capacitor mismatch, comparator offset, input offset, and finite ga...
متن کاملA Survey of Filter Bank A/d Converters
Hybrid filter bank analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) have been proposed as a candidate for high-speed, high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion. It is a generalization from time-interleaved ADCs, but it has the advantage that the mismatch errors inherent in parallel converters are attenuated by the filters. This paper gives an overview of hybrid filter bank ADC analysis and design. Furthe...
متن کاملAnalog (S)witchcraft, or How to Perform Accurate and Linear Data Conversion Using Inaccurate Nonlinear Elements
This paper provides a tutorial overview of some recently developed methods for enhancing the accuracy and linearity of data converters (analog-todigital as well as digital-to-analog) by introducing auxiliary digital circuitry which calibrates, cancels and/or corrects the errors introduced by the unavoidable inaccuracy of the analog components used in the conversion. Simple but practical example...
