Abstract :
This paper presents a 0.5 V ultra-low-voltage flash ADC using an all-digital time-domain delay interpolation technique for resolution enhancement. The developed 7-bit flash ADC is implemented in a 90 nm CMOS process. By using two-way time-interleaving, it achieves an ENOB of 5.5 bits while operating at 420 MSps consuming a total power of 4.1 mW. The measured peak FoM is 195 fJ/conv.-step during single-channel operation at 210 MSps.
