A 12-bit 1-GS/s Current-Steering DAC With Paired Current Source Switching Background Mismatch Calibration

A 12-bit 1-GS/s Current-Steering DAC With Paired Current Source Switching Background Mismatch Calibration 150 150
Author(s): Chang-Un Park, Jae-Hyun Chung, Chunsuk Kim, Hyun-Woo Shin, Charlie Tahar, Seung-Tak Ryu

Abstract:

This article presents a spur-suppressed background calibration technique for high-speed current-steering digital-to-analog converters (DACs), based on a paired current source (CS) switching scheme. In conventional background calibration, periodic switching of CSs to and from the calibration mode introduces unwanted glitches that appear as spurious tones. The proposed technique introduces an …

A Two-Stage 12–1-V Converter Featuring Regulated Resonant SC Regulators and Collaborative Control Scheme

A Two-Stage 12–1-V Converter Featuring Regulated Resonant SC Regulators and Collaborative Control Scheme 150 150
Author(s): Shengdao Ren, Yukan Du, Menglian Zhao, Zhichao Tan, Chushan Li, Yong Ding, Wuhua Li, Wanyuan Qu

Abstract:

In the field of power converters for data centers, the two-stage architecture has received widespread attentions due to its various advantages. Especially, the switched-capacitor voltage regulator (SCVR) becomes popular as the second-stage converter owing to its high efficiency and power density. However, the SCVR suffers from poor voltage regulation and …

A Fast Transient Response Fully Integrated LDO With a Novel Resetting Oscillator Control Method

A Fast Transient Response Fully Integrated LDO With a Novel Resetting Oscillator Control Method 150 150
Author(s): Masoud Kargaran, Amir Besharati Rad, Ali Medi

Abstract:

This article introduces a novel resetting oscillator regulator (ROR) control method for low-dropout (LDO) regulators, designed to achieve fast settling times for both load and reference input steps. The proposed ROR integrates a high-speed loop that independently functions as an oscillator in a closed-loop configuration, along with a separate high-rate …

Digital Low-Dropout Regulator-Assisted Buck DC-DC Converter Achieving 68-mV Droop Voltage and 95.5% Efficiency

Digital Low-Dropout Regulator-Assisted Buck DC-DC Converter Achieving 68-mV Droop Voltage and 95.5% Efficiency 150 150
Author(s): Yichen Xu, Zhaoqing Wang, Rentao Wan, Suhwan Kim, Minxiang Gong, Ram Krishnamurthy, Xin Zhang, Mingoo Seok

Abstract:

This paper proposes a digital low-dropout regulator (DLDO)-assisted buck converter featuring one-step computational droop compensation and DLDO feedback-controlled current handover. The 28-nm test chip achieves a 68-mV droop voltage and a 112-ns settling time for a 1A/0.8ns load step while maintaining a high peak efficiency of 95.5%.

A 45-V Auto-Zero-Stabilized Chopper Instrumentation Amplifier With 1.8- μ V Offset, 33.5- μ V Ripple, and 42-V Common-Mode Input Range

A 45-V Auto-Zero-Stabilized Chopper Instrumentation Amplifier With 1.8- μ V Offset, 33.5- μ V Ripple, and 42-V Common-Mode Input Range 150 150
Author(s): Jiahao Wang, Shen Ye, Shiqi Zhang, Zhiliang Hong, Jiawei Xu

Abstract:

This letter presents a 45V high-precision current-feedback instrumentation amplifier (CFIA) that combines both chopping and auto-zeroing (AZ) to achieve 1.8- $mu $ V input offset (10 samples) and 33.5- $mu $ V input-referred ripple. The AZ is duty cycled to minimize power and silicon area, with a parallel auxiliary path operating during AZ …
