Abstract
A 13-bit successive approximation analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is presented for an ultralow-power sensor interface. Capacitor error compensation is achieved by swapping the roles of two identical capacitor banks in a digital-to-analog converter. The ADC is implemented in a standard 0.13-μm CMOS. With a single supply voltage of 0.5 V and a rail-to-rail conversion range, the ADC dissipates 1.47 μW at a sampling rate of 40 kS/s. It shows a figure of merit of 17.9 fJ/conversion-step with an effective number of 11.0 bits.
