Abstract
- A novel capacitor mismatch calibration method is presented to compensate the capacitor mismatches in a successive approximation register (SAR) ADC. The method features a new weight‐balancing split capacitive DAC which allows automatic extraction and calibration of the capacitor mismatches by itself. As a result, the ADC's resolution can be substantially improved with minimum area and power penalty. The calibration method was verified and implemented in a 14 bit, 10 kS/s SAR ADC, fabricated in a 0.13 µm standard CMOS process. The measured signal‐to‐noise‐plus‐distortion and spurious‐free dynamic range are 72.7 and 86 dB after calibration with 13.6 and 21.8 dB improvements, respectively. The total power consumption is 15.2 µW at a 1.2 V supply voltage. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
