Abstract
An area-efficient self-calibration technique for pipe-lined A/D converters is presented. It consists of trimming the reference voltage to each stage by means of a tunable MOSFET attenuator. This simplifies the calibration circuit in each stage and shifts most of the calibration task to a hardware that is shared by all stages
