Abstract :
A high-speed low-power latched CMOS comparator circuit is presented. Demonstrated is a circuit optimisation technique to obtain minimum offset error at 500 MHz sampling speed. Also, a mathematical model representing the noise in the device is developed. After optimisation, the comparator achieved 10-bit resolution on a 1 V differential input at 500 MHz speed and had a noise figure of 4.747 dB at this frequency.
