Abstract
This work presents a reconfigurable delay and redundancy technique, which relaxes the reference driver requirements for a charge-redistribution SAR ADC. By selectively adding delay to the most critical SAR cycle, the overall speed of the ADC is only slightly degraded, while the output impedance of the driver or the amount of decoupling capacitance can be reduced substantially. In a simulated 10-bit 10 MS/s SAR ADC prototype, the proposed technique reduces the decoupling capacitance by 16× while maintaining 59.2 dB SNDR and 71.2 dB SFDR at a power consumption of 32 mu mathrm{W}. The estimated area is 0.002 mm2 including decoupling capacitors.
