Post-Correction of Analog to Digital Converters

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.
