Author(s): Yongqi Hu, Jue Huang, Chenkang Ning, Yumeng Yuan, Hao Xu, Na Yan, Xufeng Kou

Abstract:

This article presents a calibration-free fractional-N cascaded phase-locked loop (PLL) employing a sampling phase detector (SPD)-bypass-based phase-domain oversampling noise-and-spur cancellation (P-OSNSC) technique. By incorporating an oversampling cancellation path that eliminates the gain errors and noise cancellation bandwidth limitation introduced by the SPD, the proposed architecture suppresses noise from the …

A 0.0035-mm2 86-dB-SNR 1.25-MHz-BW Noise-Shaping SAR ADC Enabling kT/C Noise Shaping

A 0.0035-mm2 86-dB-SNR 1.25-MHz-BW Noise-Shaping SAR ADC Enabling kT/C Noise Shaping 150 150
Author(s): Xing Wang, Zhishuai Zhang, Yi Zhong, Nan Sun, Lu Jie

Abstract:

This work presents a compact second-order noise shaping successive approximation register (NS-SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring a novel kT/C noise shaping technique. The proposed kT/C noise shaping technique selectively suppresses kT/C noise within the signal bandwidth of an oversampled SAR ADC. It avoids using a wideband noise …

Author(s): Chenyang Li, Tzu-Han Wang, Dongsuk Kang, Ken Li, Xitie Zhang, Wei-En Lee, Visvesh S. Sathe, Shaolan Li

Abstract:

This article presents a two-step incremental analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that achieves high resolution and energy efficiency while substantially easing the input driving constraints and interstage gain variation. By employing a level-shifted sub-ranging architecture with an input-tracking (IT) feature, the design obviates direct input sampling, thereby significantly relaxing the demands on …

An Incremental Noise-Shaping Pipeline ADC With Single-Amplification-Based kT/C Noise Cancellation Technique

An Incremental Noise-Shaping Pipeline ADC With Single-Amplification-Based kT/C Noise Cancellation Technique 150 150
Author(s): Zongnan Wang, Bingrui Li, Jiajun Tang, Zhongyi Wu, Haoyang Luo, Yuan Wang, Xiyuan Tang

Abstract:

This article presents an incremental noise-shaping (NS) pipeline analog-to-digital converter (ADC) featuring a single-amplification-based kT/C noise cancellation technique. By pre-amplifying the frontend sampling kT/C noise onto the capacitive digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) of the backend NS successive approximation register (SAR) quantizer, the proposed architecture eliminates the repeated amplifications typically …
