A 1.8V 12bits 100-MS/s Pipelined Analog-to-Digital ConverterChen, Bo-Hua 07 August 2007 (has links)
The digital product increases widely and vastly. Because we live in the analog world, we require a converter to change analog signal to digital one. However, the requirement of analog-to-digital converter is rising due to progress of DSP (Digital Signal Processor). For portable products, the power consumption also needs to take into account. As mentioned above, I will implement a high speed and low power analog to digital converter.
In this thesis, the circuits are designing with TSMC.18 1P6M CMOS process and 1.8V of supply voltage. The speed and resolution of ADC are 100Ms/s and 12bits individually. The pipelined coupling with 1.5bit/stage constitutes the main architecture of analog-to-digital converter. The dynamic comparator is used for lower power. Finally, the output codes are translated by digital correction circuit.

Modeling Analog to Digital Converters at Radio FrequencyBjörsell, Niclas January 2007 (has links)
Det här arbetet handlar om att ta fram beteendemodeller av analog till digital omvandlare avsedda för tillämpningar i radiofrekvensområdet. Det gäller tillämpningar inom telekommunikation men även in test- och mätinstrument där omvandlingen från analoga till digitala signaler ofta är en prestandamässig flaskhals. Modellerna är avsedda att användas för att efterbehandla utdata från omvandlaren och på så sätt förbättra prestanda på den digitala signalen. Genom att skapa modeller av verkliga omvandlare och hur dessa avviker från ett idealt beteende kan ofullständigheter korrigeras genom så kallad postkorrigering. Beteendemodeller innebär att genererar en lämplig insignal, mäta utdata och beräkna en modell. För omvandlare i radiofrekvensområdet ställs höga krav på instrumentering. Den testutrustningen som används är baserad på moderna högprestanda instrument som har kompletterats med specialbyggd utrustning för signalkonditionering och datainsamling. I avhandlingen har även olika insignaler utvärderats med såväl teoretisk som experimentell analys. Det finns ett flertal olika varianter av modeller för att modulera ett olinjär, dynamisk system. För att få en parametereffektiv modell har utgångspunkten varit att utgå från en Volterramodell som på ett optimalt sätt beskriver svagt olinjära dynamiska system, så som analog till digital omvandlare, men som är alltför omfattande i antal parametrar. Volterramodellens har sedan reducerats till en mindre parameterintensiv, modellerstruktur på så sätt att Volterrakärnans symmetriegenskaper jämförts med symmetrierna hos andra modeller. En alternativ metod är att använda en Kautz-Volterramodell. Den har samma generella egenskaper som Volterramodellen, men är inte lika parameterkrävande. I den här avhandlingen redovisas experimentella resultat av Kautz-Volterramodellen som i framtiden kommer att vara intressanta att använda för postkorrigeringen. För att kunna beskriva beteenden som en dynamiska olinjära modellen inte klarar av har modellen kompletterats med en statisk styckvis linjär modellkomponent. I avhandlingen presenteras en sluten lösning för att identifiera samtliga paramervärden i modellen. Vidare har det i avhandlingen genomförs en analys av hur respektive komponent påverkar prestanda på utsignalen. Därigenom erhålls ett mått på den maximala prestandaförbättring som kan uppnås om felet kan elimineras. / This work considers behavior modeling of analog to digital converters with applications in the radio frequency range, including the field of telecommunication as well as test and measurement instrumentation, where the conversion from analog to digital signals often is a bottleneck in performance. The models are intended to post-process output data from the converter and thereby improve the performance of the digital signal. By building a model of practical converters and the way in which they deviate from ideal, imperfections can be corrected using post-correction methods. Behavior modeling implies generation of a suitable stimulus, capturing the output data, and characterizing a model. The demands on the test setup are high for converters in the radio frequency range. The test-bed used in this thesis is composed of commercial state-of-the-art instruments and components designed for signal conditioning and signal capture. Further, in this thesis, different stimuli are evaluated, theoretically as well as experimentally. There are a large number of available model structures for dynamic nonlinear systems. In order to achieve a parameter efficient model structure, a Volterra model was used as a starting-point, which can describe any weak nonlinear system with fading memory, such as analog to digital converters. However, it requires a large number of coefficients; for this reason the Volterra model was reduced to a model structure with fewer parameters, by comparing the symmetry properties of the Volterra kernels with the symmetries from other models. An alternative method is the Kautz-Volterra model, which has the same general properties as the Volterra model, but with fewer parameters. This thesis gives experimental results of the Kautz-Volterra model, which will be interesting to apply in a post-correction algorithm in the future. To cover behavior not explained by the dynamic nonlinear model, a complementary piecewise linear model component is added. In this thesis, a closed form solution to the estimation problem for both these model components is given. By gradually correcting for each component the performance will improve step by step. In this thesis, the relation between a given component and the performance of the converter is given, as well as potential for improvement of an optimal post-correction. / QC 20100629

Post-Correction of Analog to Digital ConvertersGong, Pu, Guo, Hua January 2008 (has links)
As the rapid development of the wireless communication system and mobile video devices, the integrated chip with low power consuming and high conversion efficiency is widely needed. ADC and DAC are playing an important role in these applications. The aim of this thesis is to verify a post-correction method which is used for improving the performance of ADC. First of all, this report introduces the development and present status of ADC, and expatiate its important parameters from two different classes (static performance and dynamic performance). Based on the fundamental principle, the report then focuses on the dynamic integral non-linearity modeling of ADC. Refer to this model, one post-correction method is described and verified. Upon the face of post-correction, this method is to modify the output signals which have been converted from analog to digital format by adding a correction term. Improvement made by the post-correction needs to be checked out. Thus the performance analysis mainly relay on the measures of total harmonic distortion and signal to noise and distortion ratio is also included in this thesis.

Since digital system has become very common today it is important to have good interfaces in between the analog and digital domain. This puts high demandson the analog to digital converter. It is therefore important in the design of theanalog to digital converter to reduce noise and offset as much as possible. That isalso what this analysis is going to consider but in a comparator which is a crucialpart of the analog to digital converter. The comparator consists of a preamplifierand a latch and it is the preamplifier that will be studied here. The analog todigital converter in consider is of PSAR structure.

Implementation of a 1.8V 12bits 100-MS/s Pipelined Analog-to-Digital ConverterMa, Ting-Chang 04 August 2010 (has links)
Because IC (Integrated Circuit) has some good features like: little, low power consumption, and high stable, so it already popularly applied to our daily life. Operation is one of the main functions of IC, and now operate function achieve in digital mode of many IC products. Although digital circuits have many advantages, but we live in the analog world, natural signals are all analog. Digital circuits can¡¦t direct process analog signals, and therefore we have a requirement of analog-to-digital converter.
As time goes by, IC technology has made great progress; digital circuits have faster process ability, and we also require a high speed analog-to-digital converter. Besides, in order to achieve higher picture quality and clearer voice, we also require a high resolution analog-to-digital converter. For portable products, the power consumption also needs to take into account. As mentioned above, I will implement a high speed, high resolution and low power analog-to-digital converter.
In this thesis, the circuits are designing with TSMC.18£gm 1P6M CMOS process and 1.8V of supply voltage. The speed and resolution of ADC are 100Ms/s and 12bits individually.

Filter Design Considerations for High Performance Continuous-Time Low-Pass Sigma-Delta ADCGadde, Venkata Veera Satya Sair 2009 December 1900 (has links)
Continuous-time filters are critical components in the implementation of large bandwidth, high frequency, and high resolution continuous-time (CT) sigma-delta (ΣΔ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The loop filter defines the noise-transfer function (NTF) and hence the quantization noise-shaping behavior of the ΣΔ modulator, and becomes the most critical performance determining part in ΣΔ ADC.
This thesis work presents the design considerations for the loop filter in low-pass CT ΣΔ ADC with 12-bits resolution in 25MHz bandwidth and low power consumption using 0.18μm CMOS technology. Continuous-time filters are more suitable than discrete-time filters due to relaxed amplifier bandwidth requirements for high frequency ΣΔ ADCs. A fifth-order low-pass filter with cut-off frequency of 25 MHz was designed to meet the dynamic range requirement of the ADC. An active RC topology was chosen for the implementation of the loop filter, which can provide high dynamic range required by the ΣΔ ADC. The design of a summing amplifier and a novel method for adjusting the group delay in the fast path provided by a secondary feedback DAC of the ΣΔ ADC are presented in detail. The ADC was fabricated using Jazz 0.18μm CMOS technology.
The implementation issues of OTAs with high-linearity and low-noise performance suitable for the broadband ADC applications are also analyzed in this work. Important design equations pertaining to the linearity and noise performance of the Gm-C biquad filters are presented. A Gm-C biquad with 100MHz center frequency and quality factor 10 was designed as a prototype to confirm with the theoretical design equations. Transistor level circuit implementation of all the analog modules was completed in a standard 0.18μm CMOS process.

Design of a Wide Bandwidth Continuous-time Low-pass Sigma-delta ModulatorChien, Cheng-Ming 2011 December 1900 (has links)
The emergence of bandwidth-intensive services has created a need for high speed and high resolution data converters. Towards this end, system level design of a continuous-time sigma-delta modulator achieving 11 bits resolution over 100 MHz signal bandwidth by using a feed-forward topology is presented. The system is first built in the Simulink environment in MATLAB. The building blocks in the loop filter are modeled with non-idealities, and specifications for these blocks are obtained by simulations. An operational transconductor amplifier (OTA) with 100 mS transconductance, 70 dB linearity, and 34.2 mW power dissipation is designed to be used in the loop filter. Simulation results indicate that the 5th order loop filter implemented in the feed-forward architecture in transistor level shows lower power consumption, 105 mW, compared to the loop filter implemented by feedback architecture, 152 mW.

A 2.5V 8-bit 100MHzS/s 16mW Current Mode Folding and Interpolation Analog to Digital Converter Using Back-end AmplifierChen, Shi-Xuan 14 July 2004 (has links)
A 2.5V 8-bit 100MSample/sec folding and interpolation analog to digital converter is described in this thesis. First, a cascoding folding amplifier is used for improve power consumption. The differential pairs of the folding amplifier are cascoded to reduce the numbers of reference current source, so the power consumption is reduced. In order to reduce more power consumption, we drop the power supply down to 2.5V. However, the power supply is not large enough to keep the folding amplifier working normally and it causes the output signal aberration. Hence, we propose a back-end amplifier to connect the folding amplifier to overcome the problem. Therefore, the power consumption of all circuit is reduced to 15.292mW. Moreover, the capacitive loading at the output of the cascoded differential pairs is smaller than that of conventional cascaded differential pairs, and we employ a distributed folding technique to reduce the folding factors of each folding amplifier. Therefore, we improve the frequency multiplication effect to increase the analog input signal bandwidth. Beside, in order to heave the input signal range of the voltage mode comparator, we employ an n-channel input stage. Because the input signal range of n-channel is higher than that of p-channel input stage. By using these techniques, the input signal bandwidth and the power consumption of overall circuit are improved greatly.
The proposed analog to digital converter is designed by TSMC 0.35£gm 2P4M CMOS process, and it operates at 2.5V power supply voltage with 1V to 2.4V reference voltage. The simulation results show that the power consumption is 15.292mW, DNL is +/- 0.55LSB, and INL is 1.7LSB ~ -0.8LSB.

Comparator-Based Cyclic Analog-to-Digital Conversion with Error-TrimmingChang, Li-Shen 11 August 2009 (has links)
This thesis focuses on the analysis theory, circuit design, simulations, and chip measurements of the transfer stage in the continuously error-trimming comparator-based switched-capacitor charge transfer stage in the cyclic redundant-sign-digit (RSD) algorithm.
Capacitor mismatching remains an insurmountable factor for switched-capacitor circuit designers. To correct errors which result from the capacitor mismatching, a continuous error-trimming circuit is generalized from a typical CBSC circuit. The
analysis theory of the error-trimming operation describes the effects of the error-trimming circuit in the CBSC circuit, as well as the guidelines for trimming. The error-trimming operation is able to tune the gain and virtual condition of the charge transfer stage for canceling the gain and offset errors. The circuit is designed, with the 0.35£gm 2-poly 4-metal TSMC process, in fully integral circuits. The circuit is
simulated by a matlab simulator and an online Cadence Spectre simulator, to confirm how the operation works. Finally, chip measurements are recorded for verification and simulation comparisons.
