A 60-V High-Linearity Shunt-Based In-Line Current Sensor With DLL-Assisted Dynamic Body-Biasing and High dV/dt PWM Rejection Up to 2MHz

A 60-V High-Linearity Shunt-Based In-Line Current Sensor With DLL-Assisted Dynamic Body-Biasing and High dV/dt PWM Rejection Up to 2MHz 150 150

Abstract:

This article presents a fully integrated shunt-resistor-based in-line current sensor for high-voltage (HV) pulse-width modulation (PWM)-based power systems. Floating-Gm current sensors are effective at rejecting HV PWM common-mode (CM) interference, but their linearity degrades at high CM voltages due to the substrate current-induced body effect (SCBE) in HV laterally …

A 500-MS/s 94-dB-SFDR Resistive-Input Pipelined-SAR ADC With a Current-Buffer-Based Integrating Sampler and Floating Charge Transferrer

A 500-MS/s 94-dB-SFDR Resistive-Input Pipelined-SAR ADC With a Current-Buffer-Based Integrating Sampler and Floating Charge Transferrer 150 150

Abstract:

This work presents a pipelined successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with a current-buffer-based integrating sampler that combines an easy-to-drive resistive input with high linearity. To overcome the linearity and swing limitations of conventional current-integrating samplers (CISs), the frontend employs a $G_{m}$ -boosted continuous-time (CT) floating charge transferrer (…

A 760 mVPP-Input-Range, 103.6dB-SNDR Direct-Digitization Sensor Readout With Pseudo-Differential Integrator and Impedance-Equalized RDAC 150 150

Abstract:

A high-precision, direct-digitization sensor readout (DD-RO) based on a continuous-time delta-sigma modulator (CT- $\Delta \Sigma $ M) is presented. The proposed DD-RO incorporates several key innovations to enhance performance. First, a pseudo-differential current-balancing integrator (PD-CBI) significantly extends the linear input range, whereas its intrinsically limited common-mode input range and CMRR are …

A 23.4–42.1-GHz Fractional-N Synthesizer With ADC-Based Direct Phase Digitization

A 23.4–42.1-GHz Fractional-N Synthesizer With ADC-Based Direct Phase Digitization 150 150

Abstract:

A fractional-N digital phase-locked loop employs a novel analog-to-digital converter (ADC)-based phase detector (PD) to achieve direct phase digitization, thereby eliminating the need for a digital-to-time converter (DTC). The high PD gain reduces in-band phase noise, while its high linearity enables all-digital $\Sigma \Delta $ quantization noise cancellation. Implemented with …
