Abstract :
Two background calibration methods for time-interleaved pipelined analog-to-digital converters are described and compared. One approach uses an extra ADC channel and analog calibration circuits; the other uses extra resolution and digital calibration circuits. Both approaches have been integrated in a 1-μm CMOS process. The strengths and weaknesses of the two approaches are presented, and the measured data are compared
