Abstract :
The pipelined ADC can keep high speed and low power consumption when it achieves high conversion accuracy, it can compromise between speed, conversion accuracy, power consumption and chip area. It is very suitable to be used in system integration and portable devices. This paper presents a novel pipelined analog-to-digital converter (ADC). Based on 0.35 μm BiCMOS process, the design is verified using the sample frequency of 250 MHz. The results show that signal to noise ratio (SNR) and Spurious Free dynamic range (SFDR) can reach 46-dB and 64.8-dB respectively. The power consumption of the key A/D circuit is 118 mW when the supply voltage is 3.3 V.
