Abstract :
In this paper a 4-bit algorithmic current mode Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) has been implemented. A vital component of this ADC is a current comparator. We have simulated three popular structures of current comparators that can be used to implement this ADC and compared their performance. The circuit has been implemented using 0.18 μm CMOS technology with a supply voltage of 1.8V.
