A method is proposed to cancel the jitter-induced errors in ADC. One of the key parameters needed here is the derivative of each sampled points. The derivative calculated from the algorithm is distorted by a sinc function as the signal frequency gets higher. A look-up table method is applied to compensate the distortion factor which makes the system to operate well near Nyquist rate. In this architecture, a time-to-digital converter (TDC) is desired to adopt the jitter cancellation algorithm in the digital domain. Besides, this TDC need to be wide dynamic range and high precision in order to cover the peak-to-peak jitter variation while maintain the accuracy. In this thesis, an MDLL-based TDC with local passive interpolation which has 10ps resolution and 5.12ns dynamic range is designed. Fabricated in a 90-nm CMOS technology, the TDC consumes 6.0mW from a 1-V power supply while the active area is only 0.017mm2.Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Motivation and Research Goals 1.2 Thesis Overview 2hapter 2 Basic Concepts and Proposed Jitter Error Cancellation Algorithm 5.1 Introduction 5.2 Basic Concepts 6 2.2.1 Conventional Jitter Requirement for Nyquist-Rate ADC 6 2.2.2 Generic Autocorrelation Function in the Linear Approximation 6.3 Proposed Jitter Error Cancellation Algorithm 8 2.3.1 Jitter Terminology and Measurement 9 2.3.2 Derivative Estimation by Two Points 11 2.3.3 Derivative Estimation by Three Points 12 2.3.4 High Frequency Response Improvement 14.4 Summary 16hapter 3 Fundamentals of Time-to-Digital Converter 17.1 Introduction 17.2 TDC Performance Metrics 18 3.2.1 Dynamic Range 18 3.2.2 Conversion Time and Dead Time 18 3.2.3 Single Shot Precision 18 3.2.4 Interpolation Factor 19 3.2.5 Nonlinearity 19 .3 Architectures of Time-to-Digital Converter 21 3.3.1 Time-to-Voltage-to-Digital Converter 21 3.3.2 Vernier-Based TDC 22 3.3.3 Pulse-Shrinking Cyclic TDC 24 3.3.4 DLL Interpolation TDC 25 3.3.5 Local Passive Interpolation TDC 27 hapter 4 System Architecture of a MDLL-Based TDC with Local Passive Interpolation 29.1 Introduction 29 4.1.1 Multiplying DLL 29 4.1.2 Local Passive Interpolation and Phase Averaging 33.2 Architecture of the MDLL-Based TDC with Local Passive Interpolation 36 4.2.1 System Architecture 36 4.2.2 Dynamic Range and Resolution 38.3 Summary 41hapter 5 Circuit Implementation 43.1 Introduction 43.2 Architecture 43.3 Delay Cell 44.4 Phase Frequency Detector 45.5 Charge Pump 47.6 Divider 48.7 Control Logic 49.8 Arbiter 50.9 Encoder 51.10 Output Buffers 52 5.10.1 Digital Output Buffer 52 5.10.2 Open-Drain Output Buffer 53.11 Transistor-Level Simulation 53.12 Layout and Performance Summary 57hapter 6 Test and Experimental Results 59.1 Introduction 59.2 Chip Die Photo 59.3 Test Strategy 60 6.3.1 Test Setup 60 6.3.2 Print Circuit Board Design 61.3 Experimental Results 64hapter 7 Conclusion 65.1 Conclusion 65ibliography 673217906 bytesapplication/pdfen-US類比數位轉換器斜率抖動誤差消除抖動規格要求週期抖動取樣過程信噪比ADCderivativejitter error cancellationjitter requirementperiod jittersampling processSNRthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/189198/1/ntu-98-R96943007-1.pdf
