Abstract :
This paper presents a high-speed, high-resolution, and low-power CMOS switched-current cyclic Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). The high performance is attributed to the use of the following components: (1) a high-performance residual amplifier which takes two clock cycles to double a current; and (2) an efficient cyclic RSD algorithm which provides 1.5 b resolution without using two matched reference currents. Simulation results show that the developed ADC achieves 12-bit resolution, a conversion rate of 100 ns per bit, and a power consumption of 1.9 mW, where the low-cost MOSIS SCAN20 2 μm CMOS process and 3.3 V supply voltage are employed
