The function of energy-reduction is demonstrated by the measurements of the chip. The M-S DAC technique using an additional master DAC (MDAC) with extra area of 5% in capacitor array can prevent energy from waste in vain, which is caused by the repeatedly charge and discharge in the same capacitor of conventional capacitor array, particularly in larger bits. The sequences of M-S DAC are sampling, MDAC cycling, bit transferring, slave DAC (SDAC) cycling. The optimum number of bits and energy dis-sipation in the capacitor array is analyzed and identified by the simulation and meas-urements. The prototype SAR ADC using the M-S DAC has the resolution of 10-bit, sam-pling rate at 500KS per second with supply voltage of 1V which is adopted by bio-applications in common. The reduction ratio of energy dissipation in capacitor array is 93% in this work within the mismatch constraint and the core area is 0.15 mm2 with the area-reduction of 75% in capacitor array compared with conventional array. This prototype achieves the signal-to-noise-and-distortion-ratio of 59.2dB in equivalent to effective number of bits of 9.6-bit in measurement. The power consumption significantly reduces by M-S DAC technique. The total power is 28μW and it reaches the FoM 77fJ/Conversion-step. Conclusively, this thesis provides a technique for capacitor array to reduce energy dissipation, and demonstrated the function of the technique by a fabri-cated chip.140 bytestext/htmlen-US生醫應用低功率逐次逼近暫取器型類比數位轉換器主動-被動數位類比轉換器不匹配電容陣列bio-applicationlow powerlow voltageSAR ADCenergy-efficientM-S DACmismatched capacitor array於應用生醫系統之低功率類比數位轉換器Low Power Analog to Digital Converter for Bio-Medical Applicationsthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/256715/1/index.html
