    摘要: The subrange-type A/D converter includes A/D converters in multiple stages (204, 212), with their driving clock frequencies being in certain relationship so that they are used commonly for the A/D conversion of the high definition television signal and the A/D conversion of a test signal for detecting the transmission characteristics.

    摘要: A calibration circuit for a recirculation of remainder analog-to-digital (A/D) converter heuristically solves a multi- plevariable conversion equation. Input analog calibration and analog reference signals are compared in a comparator (40), and when the two signals have a predetermined relationship, the comparator (40) generates an indicator signal. A microprocessor (15) determines (a) a first pattern of digital reference signals that, together with digital calibration signals generated by the microprocessor, causes the comparator (40) to generate the indicator signal and (b) a second pattern of digital reference signalsthat,together with the inputanalog calibration signals, causes the comparator to generate the indicator signal. The difference between the first and second patterns of digital reference signals is stored as conversion coefficients.

    摘要: Methods and apparatuses are described for a DSP receiver with an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) having high speed, low BER performance with low power and area requirements. Speed is increased for multi-path ADC configurations by resolving a conventional bottleneck. ADC performance is improved by integrating calibration and error detection and correction, such as distributed offset calibration and redundant comparators. Power and area requirements are dramatically reduced by using low BER rectification to nearly halve the number of comparators in a conventional high speed, low BER flash ADC.

    摘要: A controller receives an M-bit input and generates, in response, an S-bit upper range binary data feeding S-bit high range DAC and an R-bit lower range data feeding an R-bit low range DAC. The controller detects transition points in the M-bit input and, in response, adds a transition data to the S-bit data equal to at least one least significant bit of the S-bit data and subtracts a value from the R-bit data equal to the transition data. The transition points and the transition data are detected and added at points avoiding such transitions at a full scale value of the R-bit data.

    摘要: A device for receiving a distorted signal, in particular an optical signal converted by an opto/electrical converter, comprises an analog/digital converter (1) with adjustable thresholds and a Viterbi equalizer (10). The device further comprises a histogram estimator (13) for determining a probability density function of the distorted signal and a threshold estimator (4) for dynamically adjusting at least one threshold of the analog/digital converter (1) in an overlap region of a first signal amplitude attributed to a first symbol (σ 10 , X 10 ) and a second signal amplitude attributed to a second symbol (σ 11 , X 11 ) of the probability density function.

    摘要: Performing a coarse conversion of an analog signal to a coarse digital representation using a first analog-to-digital converter, transferring the coarse representation to a second converter, and performing a fine analog-to-digital conversion of the signal using the coarse representation as a starting value for a fine digital representation. The fine conversion can include a redundant portion that can be used to correct a mismatch between the coarse and fine conversions, and this correction can operate according to a combinatorial transfer function. The fine conversion may include switching from a coarse reference to a fine reference after transferring the coarse representation. The fine conversion can also include comparing an amount of charge in a sampling capacitor after performing the coarse conversion. Also disclosed is converting an analog signal to a digital representation having a first resolution level, adjusting a bandwidth of the converter circuit, and then continuing to convert the analog signal to a second, higher resolution level. The adjusting can include adjusting a bandwidth of a comparison circuit. Further disclosed is evaluating the amount of charge stored in a second sampling capacitor while tracking an analog signal with the first sampling capacitor. The amount of charge stored in the first capacitor is evaluated while tracking the signal with the second capacitor. Evaluating the amount of charge in the first capacitor can include comparing performed in part by a first comparator input stage, evaluating the amount of charge in the second capacitor can include comparing performed in part by a second comparator input stage. Analog-to-digital conversion circuitry can be multiplexed between the sampling capacitors.
