GAIN ERROR CORRECTION IN AN ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER

摘要

An error correction circuit for use with an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) comprising correction capacitance means and switching means coupled to the correction capacitance means. The switching means being coupled to ground and to a plurality of reference voltages and being arranged to couple a bottom plate of the correction capacitance means to ground during a sample phase of the ADC and to one of a plurality of reference voltages during a hold phase of the ADC.
