Abstract:

This letter presents a 7-bit pipelined subranging ADC that integrates a 3-bit flash ADC with a ring VCO-based quantizer. A resistor-ladder-based residue shifter (RLRS) replaces traditional residue amplifiers, efficiently shifting the residue voltage into the most linear region of the $K_{textrm {VCO}}$ , thereby eliminating the need for post-linearity calibration. …
