Abstract

A time-interleaved ADC employs four pipelined time-interleaved channels along with a new timing mismatch detection algorithm and a high-resolution variable delay line. The digital background calibration technique suppresses the interchannel timing mismatches, achieving an SNDR of 44.4 dB and a figure of merit of 219 fJ/conversion-step in 65 nm CMOS technology.
