    摘要: In a multi-stage, multi-residue interpolating analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which is suitable for pipelined implementation, inputs of at least three amplifiers are "leapfrog" switched to adjacent nodes of a first interpolation ladder having discrete voltage levels established thereon. Pairs of the amplifiers drive second interpolation ladders to establish additional discrete voltage levels (in a nominal and an overlap conversion region) at nodes of the second interpolation ladders. A bank of comparators compares a predetermined threshold voltage, e.g., ground, to several of the discrete voltage levels at the nodes of the first interpolation ladder. The switches controlling which inputs of the amplifiers are connected to which nodes of the first interpolation ladder are controlled by a logic circuit which is driven by outputs of the bank of comparators. Alternatively, the bank of comparators compares an input voltage of the ADC to voltage levels established by the first interpolation ladder. In which case, the voltages at the nodes of the interpolation ladder to which the amplifiers are connected are amplified with respect to the input voltage of the ADC.

    摘要: An interpolation circuit for an A/D converter comprises a first and a second pair of inputs (2, 2'; 3, 3') and at least three pairs of outputs (20, 20'; 24, 24'; 21, 21'). The pairs of inputs receive pairs of two input signals (V.sub.1, V.sub.1c, V.sub.5, V.sub.5c) which are substantially complementary to one another. At least two pairs of outputs (20, 20'; 24, 24') supply pairs of two substantially complementary output signals. A first output (21) of the third pair of outputs (21, 21') is coupled to a first input (2) of the first pair of inputs (2, 2'). The second output (21') of the third pair of outputs is connected to a circuit node other than one of the inputs of the first pair of inputs. This node may be, for example, the first input (3') of the second pair of inputs (FIG. 9). Another possibility is to make the node one end (38) of an impedance element (32) which has its other end coupled to the second input (2') of the first pair of inputs (FIG. 3).
