摘要: A circuit includes a nonlinear analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to provide a first digital output based on an analog input signal. The circuit also includes a linearization circuit having a lookup table (LUT) memory configured to store initial calibration data. The linearization circuit is coupled to the nonlinear ADC and is configured to: determine updated calibration data based on the initial calibration data; replace the initial calibration data in the LUT memory with the updated calibration data; and provide a second digital output at a linearization circuit output of the linearization circuit based on the first digital output and the updated calibration data.

摘要: A one-time write, read-only memory for storing trimming parameters includes an address pointer table, a fixed packet portion, and a flexible packet portion. The fixed packet portion includes one or more fixed packets, each fixed packet including trimming parameters for a component identified for trimming during a design phase. The flexible packet portion includes one or more flexible packets of different types. Each flexible packet includes trimming parameters for a component identified for trimming after the design phase. One packet type includes a length section and a number of fields equal to a value stored in the length section. Each field includes an address, a trimming parameter, and a mask. Another packet type includes trimming parameters associated with operands in operating instructions for a microcontroller, where the operands include an address and a mask.

摘要: The disclosure provides an analog to digital converter (ADC). The ADC includes a flash ADC. The flash ADC generates a flash output in response to an input signal, and an error correction block generates a known pattern. A selector block is coupled to the flash ADC and the error correction block, and generates a plurality of selected signals in response to the flash output and the known pattern. A digital to analog converter (DAC) is coupled to the selector block, and generates a coarse analog signal in response to the plurality of selected signals. A residue amplifier is coupled to the DAC, and generates a residual analog signal in response to the coarse analog signal, the input signal and an analog PRBS (pseudo random binary sequence) signal. A residual ADC generates a residual code in response to the residual analog signal.

摘要: The disclosure provides a current steering digital to analog converter (DAC) that includes a plurality of DAC elements. At least one DAC element of the plurality of DAC elements is coupled to a calibration circuit. The calibration circuit includes a fixed current source coupled to a primary node of the DAC element through a first estimation switch. A digital code generator is coupled to the primary node, and generates a first digital code corresponding to a primary voltage generated at the primary node. The digital code generator generates a second digital code. A correction DAC is coupled to the digital code generator and generates a bias voltage based on the second digital code. The bias voltage is provided to the DAC element such that a current flowing through each DAC element of the plurality of DAC elements is equal.

摘要: In described examples, a circuit includes a calibration engine. The calibration engine generates multiple input codes. A digital to analog converter (DAC) is coupled to the calibration engine, and generates a first calibration signal in response to a first input code of the multiple input codes. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to the DAC, and generates multiple raw codes responsive to the first calibration signal. A storage circuit is coupled to the ADC and stores a first output code corresponding to the first input code. The first output code is obtained using the multiple raw codes generated by the ADC.

摘要: An analog-to-digital converter circuit module utilizing dither to reduce multiplicative noise. A dither generation circuit generates a noise-shaped analog dither signal having lower amplitudes at frequencies below a cutoff frequency than at frequencies above the cutoff frequency. The noise-shaped analog dither signal is added to the input analog signal to be converted and the summed signal applied to an analog-to-digital converter The dither generation circuit may be implemented as an analog dither generator followed by an analog high-pass filter. The dither generation circuit may alternatively be implemented digitally, for example with a digital noise-shaping filter applying a high-pass digital filter to a pseudo-random binary sequence. The digital dither generation circuit may alternatively be implemented by one or more 1-bit sigma-delta modulators, each generating a bit of a digital dither sequence that is converted to analog.

摘要: A method of using an analog-to-digital converter system includes receiving a sampled voltage corresponding to one of an input voltage and a known voltage, causing preamplifiers to generate output signals based on the sampled voltage, generating first and second signals based on the output signals, causing a delay-resolving delay-to-digital backend to generate a single-bit digital signal representing an order of receipt of the first and second signals, and adjusting one or more of the preamplifiers based on the digital signal. The disclosure also relates to a system which includes a voltage-to-delay frontend and a delay-resolving backend, and to a method which includes causing a delay comparator to generate a single-bit digital signal representing an order of receipt of input signals, causing the comparator to transmit a residue delay signal to a succeeding comparator, and transmitting a signal to adjust one or more of the preamplifiers based on the digital signal.
