Abstract :
Behavioral simulations of an experimental analog to digital (A/D) converter architecture using the Saber simulator are presented. Offset, gain errors, and higher order nonlinearities of various converter components are modeled. Simulations confirm the ability of the converter to calibrate around these nonidealities
