  • Abstract
    A sensitive strobed comparator has been designed and extensively characterized. It is realized in a standard NMOS silicon-gate process, occupying a die area of 0.05 mm/SUP 2/ (81/mil/SUP 2/). Power consumption is 1 mW from a single 10 V supply. Resolution is 0.5 mV when a strobe signal rise from 0 V to 5 V in 20 ns. Offset voltage had a mean value of -0.5 mV with a standard deviation of 5 mV. This comparator should be useful for high-resolution analog-digital converters in NMOS technology.
