Abstract :
In this paper a general method for system level prediction of INL in pipeline analog to digital converters is presented. For each stage of the ADC, a new error model consisting of an input referred gain error and a nonlinear term is introduced. An analytic method to calculate INL from all error sources is presented. INL model for a switched-capacitor implementation is also presented
