Abstract :
Based on conventional two-step ADC principle, an 8-bit 250MSPS modified two-step ADC is proposed to reduce power dissipation. It is realized by applying triple-stage comparison for the number reduction of comparators, substituting new reference region selecting logic (RRSL) blocks for sub-DACs and adding sample/hold (S/H) circuit to replace residue amplifier. Simulated with SMIC O.35 mum/3.3 V AMS Si-CMOS process models, the results are shown that on the condition of realizing 250MSPS, the ADC achieves DNL<plusmn0.4LSB, INL<plusmn.5LSB, SFDR 59.2 dB at Nyquist frequency, only 85 mW power dissipation and 1.2times0.8 mm2 layout area. The ADC system architecture is to be employed in the field of high-speed low-power mixed-signal processing
