流水线SAR ADC三态逻辑开环残差放大器亚稳态利用高速转换
▸创新点1:利用比较器亚稳态实现三态SAR逻辑(方法创新)。通过精确控制比较器的亚稳态边界(±1/4 LSB),将传统SAR ADC的二元判决扩展为三态输出,显著提升转换效率,使有效位数(ENOB)最高可增加1位,同时保持600-675MS/s的高采样率。
▸创新点2:基于逆变器的开环残差放大器设计(电路创新)。采用开环结构的逆变器作为残差放大器,简化电路实现复杂度,其增益由gm比率精确控制,无需额外补偿电路,在40nm CMOS工艺下实现7.05mW超低功耗。
▸创新点3:PVT变化免疫的增益控制(系统创新)。通过gm比率定义RA增益,使放大器性能对工艺、电压和温度(PVT)变化具有天然鲁棒性,实测在-40°C至125°C温度范围和1.1-1.2V电源电压波动下,SNDR标准差仅1.7dB。
▸创新点4:高动态范围与Nyquist性能优化(性能创新)。在625MS/s采样率下实现67dB动态范围(DR)和62.4dB SNDR的Nyquist输入性能,兼顾高速与高精度,突破传统pipelined-SAR ADC的带宽-精度权衡限制。
Abstract
This article presents a 13-b high-speed pipelined-
successive-approximation-register (pipelined-SAR) analog-
to-digital converter (ADC). By utilizing the comparator
metastability, a tri-state SAR logic is introduced to achieve a
fast approximation process. The tri-state SAR outputs three
states by one comparator after each comparison cycle, and the
effective-number-of-bits (ENOBs) can improve up to 1 b when
the metastability boundary is set at ±1/4 LSB. In addition,
an open-loop inverter-based r
