Time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter
Abstract:
An ADC includes a plurality of sub ADCs configured to operate in a time-interleaved manner and a sampling circuit configured to receive an analog input signal of the ADC, wherein the sampling circuit is common to all sub ADCs. The ADC includes a test signal generation circuit configured to generate a test signal for calibration of the ADC. The sampling circuit has a first input configured to receive the analog input signal and a second input configured to receive the test signal. The sampling circuit includes an amplifier circuit and a first feedback switch connected between an output of the amplifier circuit and an input of the amplifier circuit. The first feedback switch is configured to be closed during a first clock phase and open during a second clock phase, which is non-overlapping with the first clock phase.
