摘要

A single-channel 200-MS/s 14-bit successive-approximation-register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is presented. To enhance the ADC accuracy and speed, three key techniques are adopted. Firstly, a coarse-fine architecture is utilized to increase settling time of MSB capacitor in the fine DAC equivalently. A unified bootstrap circuit shared by both the coarse and fine sampling networks is also employed to minimize timing skew between two sampling networks, reducing sampling mismatch error. Secondly, an inverter-based hybrid-mode pre-amplifier accelerates large-signal recovery while suppressing kickback noise in small-signal conditions, improving both speed and dynamic linearity. Thirdly, a replica-bias-based common-mode feedback (CMFB) scheme employs active common-mode regulation to stabilize the inverter-based pre-amplifier, addressing its sensitivity to input common-mode voltage as well as process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variations. At \(\text {1V}_\text {pp,diff}\) 1V pp,diff input amplitude, the fabricated 28-nm CMOS prototype ADC achieves a SNDR of 65.3 dB, a SFDR of 85.2 dB at the Nyquist input. The ADC core occupies an area of 0.06 \(\text {mm}^{\text {2}}\) mm 2 and consumes 16.4 mW under the 1-V power supply, yielding a Schreier FoM of 163.2 dB.
