65nm CMOS, 1mW, 50MS/s, 70.9dB SNDR
环形放大器SAR ADC开关电容无校准低功耗
▸创新点1:新型全差分环形放大器设计,解决了单端环形放大器的共模噪声和匹配问题,同时保持高增益(>60 dB)、快速压摆率充电和接近轨到轨的输出摆幅,显著提升了放大器的线性度和噪声性能。
▸创新点2:采用开关电容(SC)级间残留放大器结构,结合新型全差分环形放大器实现无校准精确放大,在50 MS/s采样率下达到13位线性度,解决了传统放大器需要校准的复杂性问题。
▸创新点3:提出浮动检测跳过(FDAS)电容DAC切换方法,通过动态跳过冗余切换步骤降低功耗,同时优化第一级CDAC的线性度,使整体ADC的SNDR提升至70.9 dB(11.5位有效精度)。
▸创新点4:系统级整合创新,通过环形放大器与SAR辅助流水线架构的协同设计,在65 nm CMOS工艺下实现1 mW超低功耗(Walden FoM 6.9 fJ/转换步),同时兼顾84.6 dB的SFDR高频性能。
Abstract
This paper presents a 13 bit 50 MS/s fully differen-
tial ring amplifier based SAR-assi sted pipeline ADC, implemented
in 65 nm CMOS. We introduce a new fully differential ring ampli-
fier, which solves the problems of single-ended ring amplifiers while
maintaining the benefits of high gain, fast slew based charging and
an almost rail-to-rail output swing. We implement a switched-ca-
pacitor (SC) inter-stage residue amplifier that uses this new fully
differential ring amplifier to giv e accurate ampli
