Pipeline ADC design: the baseline (25-30MHz)
Critical issuesAmplifier design
Capacitance matching
CM control
Noise issue, distorsion
….
Latency = 7 clock period; thanks to interleaving Sampling/Hold

Improving the Pipeline ADC design
1. Increasing the number of bit/stage => amplifier more difficult
2. Improve the bandwidth up to 40 MHz => amplifier design
3. Analog linearity correction => Dynamic Element Matching (for capacitors)
4. Digital correction => research is going on

Road map to Pipeline 40 MSPS
• Reduce C value to ease amplifier design
• Use more 2.5 bit MDAC stages
• More bits in the last stage 4 bits (flash)
• We expect 100 ns Latency time
9
How one can get better latency
time? <100 ns
PIPE line lead intrinsically to more latency
We are working on a new architecture of ADC
With latency better than pipeline
