CMOS flash analog to digital converter compensation

摘要

An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is provided. The analog-to-digital converter includes a plurality of differential comparators. For each of the plurality of differential comparators the ADC receives differential input signals and differential reference signals and generates an output signal. The ADC also includes a self-calibration circuit to receive from each of the plurality of differential comparators the output signal. In response to the output signal, the self-calibration circuit generates a self-calibration signal. The ADC further includes an adjustable reference signal generator to provide the differential reference signals based on the self-calibration signal.
