PROJECT TITLE:

Built-in Self-Calibration and Digital-Trim Technique for 14-Bit SAR ADCs Achieving ±1 LSB INL - 2015

ABSTRACT:

Several state-of-the-art monitoring and Control Systems, such as dc motor controllers, power line monitoring and protection systems, instrumentation systems, and battery monitors, need direct digitization of high-voltage (HV) input signals. Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) that may digitize HV signals need high linearity and low-voltage coefficient capacitors. A designed-in self-calibration and digital-trim algorithm correcting static mismatches in capacitive digital-to-analog converter (DAC) employed in successive approximation register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs) is proposed. The algorithm uses a dynamic error correction (DEC) capacitor to cancel the static errors occurring in each capacitor of the array as the first step upon power-up and eliminates the requirement for an additional calibration DAC. Self-trimming is performed digitally during traditional ADC operation. The algorithm is implemented on a fourteen-bit HV input vary SAR ADC with integrated DEC capacitors. The IC is fabricated in 0.half dozen-µm HV-compliant CMOS process, accepting up to 24Vpp differential input signal. The proposed approach achieves 73.32-dB signal-to-noise and distortion ratio, that is an improvement of 12.03 dB when self-calibration at 400-kS/s sampling rate, consuming ninety mW from a ±fifteen V supply. The calibration circuitry occupies twenty eight% of the capacitor DAC and consumes <;fifteen mW during operation. Measurement results show that this algorithm reduces integral nonlinearity from as high as seven LSBs all the way down to one LSB, and it works even in the presence of larger mismatches exceeding 260 LSBs. Similarly, it reduces differential nonlinearity errors from ten LSBs down to 1 LSB. The ADC occupies an active area of 9.seventy six mm2.
