Abstract: Reducing signal dependence for a reference voltage of a CDAC includes: splitting a decoupling capacitor into a plurality of capacitors smaller in size than a size of the decoupling capacitor; isolating at least one of the plurality of capacitors from a sampling buffer coupled to the reference voltage during a conversion phase; and supplying an appropriate amount of charge needed to replenish charge drawn by capacitors in the CDAC at each conversion step using a charge pump to pump in a dummy charge to the CDAC so that resulting configurations of the CDAC draw substantially similar amount of charge for each code change of the each conversion step.

Abstract translation: 降低对CDAC的参考电压的信号依赖性包括：将去耦电容器分成尺寸小于去耦电容器的尺寸的多个电容器; 在转换阶段期间将耦合到参考电压的采样缓冲器中的至少一个电容器隔离; 并且在每个转换步骤中使用电荷泵提供在CDAC中由电容器吸收的电荷所需的适当量的电荷，以将虚拟电荷泵送到CDAC，使得CDAC的所得结构为每个代码绘制基本相似的电荷量 更改每个转换步骤。
