An energy efficient switching scheme is utilized in this design to obtain low power and high frequency operation performance without an additional analog power supply or on-chip/off-chip reference. An on-chip calibration DAC (CDAC) is implemented to cancel the offset of the latch-type sense amplifier (SA) to ensure precision whilst getting rid of the dependence on the pre-amplifier, so that the power consumption can be reduced further. The design was fabricated in IBM 0.18-μm 1P4M SOI CMOS process technology. At a 1.5-V supply and 50-MS/s with 5-MHz input, the ADC achieves an SNDR of 56.76 dB and consumes 1.72 mW, resulting in a figure of merit (FOM) of 61.1 fJ/conversion-step.展开更多
