摘要
逐次逼近型模数转换器(SAR-ADC)相比较于其他类型的ADC,具有结构简单、功耗低、所占面积小等优点,在移动终端、可穿戴设备以及物联网传感器中被广泛使用。但随着科技的进步,应用场景往往会对SAR-ADC的精度提出更高的要求。基于UMC 110 nm CMOS工艺设计了一款采用RC混合结构且带自校准功能的12-bit SAR-ADC,提高了转换精度、减小了电路面积。其自校准结构相比较于传统的SAR-ADC能够在消除比较器失调的同时将误差量化,以此可判断失调是否被校准完毕,从而判断在该工艺下此ADC性能是否满足需求。
Compared with other kinds of analog-to-digital, SAR-ADC takes the advantages of simpler structure,lower power, and smaller area. It is widely used in mobile terminal, wearable devices, and internet of things sensor. However, with the progress of science and technology, application scenarios often raise higher requirements for the accuracy of SAR-ADC. Based on UMC 110 nm CMOS process, a 12-bit SAR-ADC with RC mixed structure and self-calibration is designed, and it improves the conversion precision and reduces circuit area. Compared with the traditional SAR-ADC, the self-calibration structure can quantize the error while eliminating the comparator offset, so as to judge whether the offset is calibrated, and whether the performance of the ADC meets the requirements under the process.
