The high linearity is realized by using the passive capacitor error-averaging technique to calibrate the capacitor mismatch error, a gain-boosting opamp to minimize the finite gain error and gain nonlinearity,a bootstrapping switch to reduce the switch on-resistor nonlinearity, and an anti-disturb design to reduce the noise from the digital supply. This ADC is implemented in 0.18μm CMOS technology and occupies a die area of 3.2mm^2 , including pads. Measured performance includes - 0.18/ 0.15LSB of differential nonlinearity, -0.35/0.5LSB of integral nonlinearity, 75.7dB of signal-to-noise plus distortion ratio (SNDR) and 90. 5 dBc of spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) for 2.4MHz input at 2.5MS/s. At full speed conversion (5MS/s) and for the same 2.4MHz input, the measured SNDR and SFDR are 73.7dB and 83.9 dBc, respectively. The power dissipation including output pad drivers is 21mW at 2.5MS/s and 34mW at 5MS/s,both at 2.7V supply.展开更多
