    摘要: A pipelined analog-to-digital converter and an output calibration method for the same. The pipelined analog-to-digital converter introduces an error calibration mechanism on the basis of traditional pipelined analog-to-digital converters through a control module, an equivalent gain error extraction module, an error storage module and a coding reconstruction module to compensate for gain errors and setup errors caused by operational amplifiers in a pipelined conversion module, so that the analog-to-digital conversion accuracy is improved, and requirements for the gain and bandwidth of the operational amplifier are relaxed, which can effectively reduce the power consumption of the analog-to-digital converter and the complexity of the corresponding analog circuit; a curve fitting method is adopted to obtain an ideal output sequence and then calculate errors; meanwhile, extraction and calibration of equivalent gain errors are all done in digital ways, and therefore accuracy thereof is high.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a differential reference voltage buffer, including: a buffer stage, including at least a first transistor and a second transistor; a control circuit, connected with the buffer stage and forming a negative feedback structure for generating a differential reference voltage; a current compensation circuit for compensating a resistive load current of the control circuit; and a drive stage for generating an output differential reference voltage. The differential reference voltage is generated according to an external input reference voltage and a common mode input voltage. The common mode voltage can be set separately, so that the flexibility is high. The current generated by a resistive network in the control circuit is compensated by the current compensation circuit, so that the current of a follow device in the buffer stage is not influenced by the control circuit, thereby generating a differential reference voltage with high accuracy output.
