FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
1. The ADC1256X is a CMOS four step pipelined
Analog-to-Digital Converter. It contains four 4-bit
flash A/D Converters and three multiplying D/A
Conveters. The 4-bit flash ADC is composed of
24-1 latching comparators, and multiplying DAC is
composed of 2×(24+1) capacitors and two
fully-differential amplifiers.
2. The ADC1256X operates as follows. During the
first "L" cycle of external clock the analog input
data is sampled, and the input is held from the
rising edge of the external clock, which is fed to
the first 4-bit flash ADC, and the first multiplying
DAC. Multiplying DAC reconstructs a voltage
corresponding to the first 4-bit ADC's output, and
finally amplifies a residue voltage by 23. The
second and third 4-bit flash ADC, and MDAC are
worked as same manner. Finally amplified residue
voltage at the third multiplying DAC is fed to the
last 4-bit flash ADC decides final 4-bit digital code.
2. FLASH
The 4-bit flash converters compare analog signal
(TAH output) with reference voltage, and that
results transfer to MDAC and digital correction
logic block. It is realized fully differential
comparators of 15EA. Considering self-offset,
dynamic feed through error, it should distinguish
40mV at least. First, the comparators charge the
reference voltage at the sampling capacitors before
transferred SHA output.That operation is performed
on the phase of Q2, and discharging on the phase
of Q1. That is, the comparators compare relative
different values dual input voltage with dual
reference voltage. Its output during Q1 operation is
stored at the pre-latch block by Q1P.
3. MDAC
3. ADC1256X has the error correction scheme, which
handles the output from mismatch in the first,
second, third and fourth flash ADC.
MAIN BLOCK DESCRIPTION
1. SHA
MDAC is the most important block at this ADC
and it decides the characteristics. MDAC is consist
of two stage op amp, selection logic and capacitor
array (c_array). c_array's compositions are the
capacitors to charge the analog input and and the
reference voltage, switches to control the path.
Selection logic controls the c_array internal switches
. If Q1 is high, selection's output are all low, the
switches of tsw1 are off, the switches of tsw2 are
all on. Therefore the capacitors of c_array can
charge analog input values held at SHA.
SHA (Sample-and-Hold Amplifier) is the circuit that
samples the analog input signal and hold that value
until next sample-time. It is good as small as its
different value between analog input signal and
output signal. SHA amp gain is higher than 70dB
at 20MHz conversion rate, its settling-time must be
shorten than 18ns with less than 1/2 LSB error
voltage at 12bit resolution. This SHA is consist of
fully differential op amp, switching tr. and sampling
capacitor. The sampling clock is non-overlapping
clock (Q1, Q2) and sampling capacitor value is
about 3.0pF. SHA uses independent bias to protect
interruption of any other circuit. SHA amp is
designed that open-loop dc gain is higher than
70dB, phase margin is higher than 60 degrees. Its
