Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes: a set of comparators configured to provide comparison results based on an analog signal and respective reference thresholds for comparators of the set of comparators; digitization circuitry configured to provide a digital output code based on the comparison results and a mapping; and calibration circuitry. The calibration circuitry is configured to: receive the comparison results; determine if the analog signal is proximate to one of the respective reference thresholds based on the comparison results; in response to determining the analog signal is proximate to one of the respective reference thresholds, receive ADC values based on different pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) values being applied to the analog signal; determine an offset error based on the ADC values; and provide a comparator input offset calibration signal at a calibration circuitry output if the estimated offset error is greater than an offset error threshold.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: In described examples, a stochastic comparator includes a first comparator that compares an input signal and a primary threshold to generate a first signal. A second comparator compares the input signal and the primary threshold to generate a second signal. A decision block generates a control signal in response to the first signal, the second signal and a PRBS (pseudo random binary sequence) signal. A XOR gate generates a detection signal in response the first signal and the second signal.

Abstract: A pipeline ADC comprising an ADC segment and a digital backend coupled to the ADC segment. In some examples the ADC is configured to receive an analog signal, generate a first partial digital code representing a first sample of the analog signal, and generate a second partial digital code representing a second sample of the analog signal. In some examples the digital backend is configured to receive the first and second partial digital codes from the ADC segment, generate a combined digital code based at least partially on the first and second partial digital codes, determine a gain error of the ADC segment based at least partially on a first correlation of a PRBS with a difference between the first and second partial digital codes, and apply a first correction to the combined digital code based at least partially on the gain error of the ADC segment.
