Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of integrated circuits, and more particularly, to a comparator and an analog-to-digital converter.
Background
A high-precision Successive Approximation (SAR) ADC is a very common ADC, especially for some high-speed, high-precision and low-power applications. Compared with the Σ -ADC, under the same precision requirement, the SAR ADC bandwidth can be made very high, the power consumption can be made low, and the SAR ADC bandwidth is particularly suitable for the requirements of 12-16 bit precision and throughput rate below 10 MSPS. Compared with a pipeline ADC, the SAR ADC speed is very dominant in power consumption although difficult to match; in addition, as the process size is reduced, the SAR ADC is easier to design, because the key of the pipeline ADC is the gain and bandwidth index of the operational amplifier, when the pipeline ADC enters an advanced process, the intrinsic gain of a transistor is gradually reduced, and the high gain is gradually difficult to ensure under the high bandwidth; the core module of the SAR ADC is a capacitance DAC and a high-speed comparator, and the capacitance value of the capacitor can be reduced by using an advanced process design under the condition of ensuring equal capacitance matching, so that the area is saved, and for the comparator, the advantage that the bandwidth is easier to be increased and the integration is facilitated is achieved. Therefore, SAR ADCs are widely used in MCUs and DSPs.
With the development of applications, people have increasingly strict requirements on the precision and speed of the SAR ADC, and the design of the SAR ADC also faces many challenges, one of which is how to design a high-speed high-precision comparator. The high precision means that the signal to be identified by the comparator is very small, and the high speed means that the comparison time of the comparator is very short, so that a metastable state is very easy to occur in the design, that is, the comparator fails to give a comparison result within a specified time, so that the conversion of the ADC is directly interrupted, and the precision is damaged. Therefore, how to remove the comparator meta-stability is a very critical issue in the SAR ADC design.
