Abstract :
A 10-bit, 40 Msample/s ADC for a SoC DTV receiver has been designed. Simulations verify that the required dynamic specification of 9.2 effective bits and a spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) higher than 64dB has been reached. Several unconventional techniques have been applied to achieve low power dissipation: Among others, the normally used sample-and-hold stage has been abandoned and the comparators do not exhibit static currents. The ADC core dissipates less than competitive 18mW static power
