When the sampling operation is completed, the second sampling clock control signal P1 enters a falling edge before the first sampling clock control signal P1D, the third sampling switch S5 and the fourth sampling switch S6 are opened in advance, top polar plates (i.e. output nodes) of the first sampling capacitor 8 and the second sampling capacitor 9 are high-resistance nodes, and no discharging passage exists for charges; when the first sampling clock control signal P1D is delayed for a preset time and then enters a falling edge, the corresponding first sampling switch S1 and the second sampling switch S2 are disconnected, and the voltage value of the top plate of the corresponding sampling capacitor cannot be influenced by charge injection generated by the corresponding switch, so that the influence of channel charge injection on the output node of the corresponding sampling capacitor is eliminated.
As shown in fig. 3-5, the integral phase clock generation module 12 includes a first integral signal output and a second integral signal output; the first integration signal output end is respectively connected with the first integration switch S3 and the second integration switch S4 and is used for outputting a first integration clock control signal P2D to control the on-off state of the first integration switch S3 and the second integration switch S4; the second integral signal output end is respectively connected with the third integral switch S7 and the fourth integral switch S8 and is used for outputting a second integral clock control signal P2 to control the on-off state of the third integral switch S7 and the fourth integral switch S8; the first integration clock control signal P2D is a delay signal of the second integration clock control signal P2, and the first integration clock control signal P2D enters the falling edge after being delayed for a preset time to delay the on state of the first integration switch S3 and the second integration switch S4. The rising edges of the first integrated clock control signal P2D and the second integrated clock control signal P2 are the same. The predetermined time of the delay is preferably 1 to 2 percent of the sampling period, but is not limited thereto, and the specific value thereof can be adjusted according to actual requirements.
It should be noted that, the integrated phase clock generating module 12 outputs the first integrated clock control signal P2D and the second integrated clock control signal P2, so as to control the first integrating switch S3, the second integrating switch S4, the third integrating switch S7, and the fourth integrating switch S8 to be turned on, and at this time, the first sampling capacitor 8 and the second sampling capacitor 9 output the sampled differential voltage signals to the corresponding integrating capacitor and the corresponding input terminal of the first chopper modulation circuit 3, respectively. When the integration operation is completed, the second integration clock control signal P2 enters a falling edge before the first integration clock control signal P2D, the third integration switch S7 and the fourth integration switch S8 are opened in advance, top plates (all high-resistance nodes) of the first sampling capacitor 8 and the second sampling capacitor 9 enter the falling edge after the first sampling clock control signal P1D delays for a preset time, and the corresponding first integration switch S3 and the second integration switch S4 are opened, so that error influence caused by channel charge injection effect is eliminated.
The clock control mode eliminates the channel charge injection effect by adopting a two-phase non-overlapping clock and combining a bottom plate sampling mode of a sampling capacitor in the sampling integral control circuit 2; the clock feed-through effect is eliminated through the fully-differential symmetrical circuit structure, so that the influence on the sampling precision of signals is avoided.
It should be noted that, the first sampling switch S1 and the second sampling switch S2 are both gate voltage bootstrap switches. The specific circuit structure of the gate voltage bootstrap switch may be shown in fig. 7, and the circuit structure and the working principle thereof will not be described in detail herein. The clk_sample signal end is an integral clock control signal, and the clk_hold signal end is a sampling clock control signal for controlling the on operation of the gate voltage bootstrap switch. The Vin signal end and the Vout signal end are respectively an input end and an output end of the grid voltage bootstrap switch.
The third sampling switch S5, the fourth sampling switch S6, the first integrating switch S3, the second integrating switch S4, the third integrating switch S7 and the fourth integrating switch S8 are all CMOS switches. The structure of a specific circuit of the CMOS switch can be shown in fig. 8, which is a complementary MOS circuit composed of an NMOS transistor and a PMOS transistor. The signal end A and the signal end Z are input ends and output ends of the CMOS switch, and the gate end of the NMOS tube and the gate end of the PMOS tube are connected with corresponding clock control signals so as to control the on-state operation of the CMOS switch.
Compared with the existing single-tube switch, the invention adopts the CMOS switch with small area, power to ground output range and higher on-resistance linearity, has simple structure and higher on-resistance linearity than the single-tube switch, and can effectively reduce the error caused by the on-resistance nonlinearity. The gate voltage bootstrap switch with better linearity is adopted on a key signal input path, and the gate source voltage of the switch is stabilized through a charge pump boosting technology, so that the on-resistance is stabilized and is not changed along with the change of an input signal, errors caused by the nonlinear on-resistance are avoided, and the circuit precision is improved.
In summary, the invention is applied to the dynamic error elimination integrator of the high-precision Sigma-Delta ADC, can dynamically eliminate the channel charge injection effect and the clock feed-through effect to avoid influencing the sampling precision of signals, can dynamically eliminate the errors caused by non-ideal factors such as nonlinear on-resistance of the switch, operational amplifier direct loss, operational amplifier low-frequency noise and the like, and can effectively improve the precision of the whole Sigma-Delta ADC.
Specifically, the clock feedthrough effect is eliminated by adopting a fully differential symmetrical circuit structure; the channel charge injection effect is eliminated by adopting a two-phase non-overlapping clock and combining a bottom plate sampling mode of a sampling capacitor; the CMOS switch with small area, power supply to ground output range and high on-resistance linearity is adopted by part of the switches, and the grid voltage bootstrap switch is adopted on a key signal input path so as to obtain constant on-resistance, thereby reducing and eliminating errors caused by non-linearity of the on-resistance; the full differential operational amplifier 6 of the two-stage operational amplifier with lower noise and larger output swing is adopted to prevent the overload of the integrator and reduce the overall noise of the circuit; the low-frequency noise of the operational amplifier and the DC offset of the operational amplifier are restrained by adopting a chopping technology. The dynamic error elimination is realized by the mode, so that the accuracy of the whole ADC is improved.
