Abstract :
Sigma-Delta modulator ADCs used in signal processing applications are usually implemented by switched-capacitor (SC) circuits and CMOS transmission gates. Clock feed-through effect is one of the main non-ideal parameters existing in SC integrators degrading modulator total SNDR and its linearity. In this paper, a comprehensive analysis of clock feed-through effect on CMOS transmission gates on both rising and falling edges on output node will be presented. The main interferer parameters such as clock signal timing model, input signal level and switch parameters effect on output error will be analyzed. Finally, circuit simulations using 0.18 um CMOS technology in ADS environment show the validity of extracted equations.
