According to the measurement results of the proof-and-concept prototypes, the proposed techniques are able ti improve the operating speed and decrease total circuit power consumption. The proposed techniques and chip measurement results are sketched as follows: The first technique is using charge-sharing method to achieve a Pipelined SAR ADC, this architecture using passive components capacitors for second stage sampling without using OP amplifiers, so the power consumption can be decreased greatly. A 9-bit 100MS/s SAR ADC with proposed method is implemented in TSMC 90nm 1P9M CMOS technology. As for measurement results, 1MHz input sinusoidal signal is fed into the ADC, when the operating frequency at 10MS/s, 20MS/s, 50MS/s and 100MS/s, the ENOB of ADC are 7.33 bits, 7.27 bits, 6.92 bits and 6.57 bits. The ADC consumes 2.2mW from a 1-V supply when the operating frequency at 100MS/s, the resulting figure of merit (FOM) is 231fJ/conversion-step. The second technique is adding a for reference to decrease the area of capacitor array, also we using the nature of capacitor that current will lagging the voltage, we make some change at switching, so we can achieve the target voltage without charge redistribution, we call this method “voltage-jumping” method. By using this method, we can not only decrease the capacitor array area by 50%, but also reduce the settling time of second bit. A 10-bit 100MS/s SAR ADC with proposed method is implemented in TSMC 90nm 1P9M CMOS technology. As for measurement results, 1MHz input sinusoidal signal is fed into the ADC, when the operating frequency at 10MS/s, 50MS/s and 100MS/s, the ENOB of ADC are 7.42 bits, 7.57 bits and 7.32 bits. The ADC consumes 1.6mW from a 1-V supply when the operating frequency at 100MS/s, the resulting figure of merit (FOM) is 100fJ/conversion-step.誌謝 i 中文摘要 ii ABSTRACT iii CONTENTS v LIST OF FIGURES ix LIST OF TABLES xv Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Motivation 1 1.2 Thesis organization 1 Chapter 2 Fundamental of Analog-to-Digital Converters 3 2.1 Introduction 3 2.2 ADC Performance metrics 3 2.2.1 Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) 3 2.2.2 Integral Nonlinearity (INL) 4 2.2.3 Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) 5 2.2.4 Signal-to-(Noise + Distortion) Ratio (SNDR) 7 2.2.5 Resolution and Effective Number of Bits (ENOB) 8 2.2.6 Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) 8 2.2.7 Figure of Merit (FoM) 9 2.3 Basic SAR ADC introduction 10 2.3.1 Introduction 10 2.3.2 Basic SAR ADC 11 Chapter 3 The Proposed Charge-Sharing Two-Step High Speed SAR ADC. 13 3.1 Introduction 13 3.2 Proposed SAR ADC 18 3.2.1 Conventional SAR ADC 18 3.2.2 Proposed Charge-Sharing Two-Step SAR ADC 20 3.2.3 Circuit Implement 26 3.3 Layout and Simulation Results 40 3.3.1 Post-simulation Results 40 3.3.2 Power Consumption Analysis 42 3.3.3 Layout Implementation 43 3.3.4 Summary 44 3.4 Experimental Results 45 3.4.1 Introduction 45 3.4.2 Measurement Environment setup 45 3.4.3 PCB Layout 46 3.4.4 Measurement Result 49 3.5 Performance Discussion 55 3.5.1 Delay Problem 55 3.5.2 Sampling Problem 58 3.5.3 Comparator Offset Issue 62 3.5.4 Vref Inductance Problem 64 3.6 Summary 67 Chapter 4 The Proposed Voltage-Jumping Switching Architecture High Speed SAR ADC 68 4.1 Introduction 68 4.2 Proposed SAR ADC 69 4.2.1 Proposed Architecture 69 4.2.2 Circuit Implement 75 4.3 Layout and Simulation Results 87 4.3.1 Post-simulation Results 87 4.3.2 Prior Comparison 89 4.3.3 Power Consumption Analysis 90 4.3.4 Layout Implementation 91 4.3.5 Summary 92 4.4 Experimental Results 93 4.4.1 Introduction 93 4.4.2 Measurement Environment setup 93 4.4.3 PCB Layout 94 4.4.4 Measurement Result 96 4.5 Performance Discussion 99 4.6 Summary 101 Chapter 5 Conclusion and Future Work 103 5.1 Conclusions 103 5.2 Future work 1045329823 bytesapplication/pdf論文公開時間:2017/08/21論文使用權限:同意有償授權(權利金給回饋學校)高速低功率逐漸趨近式類比至數位轉換器高速低功率的逐漸趨近式類比至數位轉換器設計Design of High-Speed Energy-Efficient Successive-Approximation Register Analog-to-Digital Convertersthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/263902/1/ntu-103-R00943024-1.pdf
