Abstract
This paper presents a dual-channel 11-bit 100 MS/s hybrid SAR ADC IP. Each channel adopts flash-SAR architecture for high speed, low power and high linearity. Dynamic comparators in the coarse flash ADC and the fine SAR ADC further contribute to the reduction of power consumption. A gate-controlled ring oscillator generates a multi-phase clock for SAR logic, thereby allowing it to asynchronously trigger the comparator in the fine SAR ADC in high speed. MOM capacitors with a fully shielded structure provide enough matching accuracy without the need for calibration. This design was fabricated in SMIC 55 nm low leakage CMOS technology and the active area of dual-channel (I-Q) ADC is 0.35 mm2, while the core area is 0.046 mm2. It consumes 2.92 mA at a 1.2 V supply, for dual-channel too. The effective number of bits (ENOB) is 9.90 bits at 2.4 MHz input frequency, and 9.34 bits at 50 MHz, leading to a FOM of 18.3 fJ/conversion-step.-
