Abstract:

This letter presents a 14-bit 500-MS/s 3-stage pipelined successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). By exploiting robust 2b/cycle SAR ADCs, this ADC incorporates significant voltage and time redundancy. High SFDR is achieved through several linearity enhancement techniques. First, a DAC splitting technique addresses the common-mode voltage matching problem between …
