Owing to high-speed AD converter (abbreviation high-speed ADC) is when carrying out sampling/keeping switching, corresponding input impedance is poor
Away from relatively big, this gap will cause when switching, and high-speed ADC carries out temporary impact to outside passive impedance matching network, punching
Hit intensity is directly related with input signal, ultimately causes high-speed ADC and connected its on same impedance matching network
The performance of his transducer or signal processor produces bigger decline.
In order to solve the problems referred to above, introduce high-speed buffer, be used for isolating ADC kernel and external passive impedance matching net
Network.For high performance high-speed buffer, it is good that design requires that it both must have in the input signal swing range specified
Isolation, must have the most again high bandwidth to help it will impact in specifying the sampling time when driving ADC kernel
The error brought is down to minimum.Along with the progress of integrated circuit technology, the MOSFET of less technique live width can be used to same
Time meet the requirement in terms of the two, but the MOSFET of less technique live width also has unavoidable problem, that is, lower
Pressure, when use this MOSFET time, it is necessary to make it be operated in the pressure scope that can bear.But at many Power Management Designs
Time, owing to the power-up speeds of different electrical power can not be accomplished completely the same, even under same power domain, building of normal working point
Stand and be likely to have long process, without protection circuit, will bear super between each pole of MOSFET in power up
Go out the voltage difference of tolerance range and cause damaging.
