A 77-dB DR Two-Stage SAR ADC for Low-Gain Analog Front-Ends Using Asynchronous Pipelining and RC Snubber Reference Stabilization

A 77-dB DR Two-Stage SAR ADC for Low-Gain Analog Front-Ends Using Asynchronous Pipelining and RC Snubber Reference Stabilization 150 150

Abstract:

The analog front-end (AFE) often bottlenecks the power of modern receiver chains, burdened by the large-signal linearity required before the ADC. This work introduces a 77-dB DR, 200-MS/s two-stage SAR ADC that can alleviate much of this burden by offering a significantly lower input-referred noise (IRN) to enable low-gain …

An 800-MS/s 13-b 2× TI Pipelined-SAR ADC With Rapid Digital Amplification

An 800-MS/s 13-b 2× TI Pipelined-SAR ADC With Rapid Digital Amplification 150 150

Abstract:

This work proposes a rapid digital amplification (RDA) with residue-aware reference, offering an equivalent open-loop (OL) gain enhancement of 25 dB and reducing the interstage gain error (ISGE)-induced SNR degradation by 20 dB, with an extra amplification latency of only 200 ps. It is implemented in an 800-MS/s 13-b two-way time-interleaved (…
