  • Abstract
    A 6-bit pseudo-flash ADC is presented. CMOS inverters are used instead of a reference ladder of well matched resistors and comparators to reduce power consumption of the ADC. Influence of temperature and technology process variations on the inverters threshold voltages is considered. The results of ADC computer simulation in UMC 180 nm CMOS technology showed that sampling rate is 100 Ms/s, power consumption is 820 uW. The ADC occupies 60×120 um2.
