Calibration scheme for resolution scaling, power scaling, variable input swing and comparator offset cancellation for flash ADCs
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a comparator of a Flash analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is calibrated in the background by switching the comparator to a feedback loop, determining the comparator's current reference level, and adjusting the comparator's reference level to a target reference level by charging a reference capacitor coupled the comparator.
