The present invention relates to a kind of method for generation and device thereof of noise signal, relate in particular to analog dither signal method for generation and device thereof, be applicable to the Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) that improves output signal in the high speed analog-to-digital conversion system.
Along with the fast development of the communication technology and service, digital receiver is just more and more used.No matter be applied to broadband or arrowband, the Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) of its analog to digital converter (ADC) all is the key that influences its performance.Present high-speed AD converter often adopts the multilevel converter structure.Although its poorest differential nonlinearity (DNL) error is generally very little, but because it adopts multistage conversion plan, the nonlinearity erron that do not match of its inter-stage concentrates on some zone, thereby makes the Spurious Free Dynamic Range of analog to digital converter relatively poor when some input range value.The analog input end that " adds DITHER (shake) " and be exactly at analog to digital converter is superimposed with a kind of Gaussian noise, make the amplitude of input signal present Gaussian characteristics, therefore can make the differential nonlinearity error randomization of analog to digital converter, at this moment the differential nonlinearity error of all digital codes occurs more identically and is consistent, no longer repeats in some fixed area.Because the distribution of differential nonlinearity error obtains randomization, and the Spurious Free Dynamic Range value of analog to digital converter is improved greatly.
In the method for present generation dither signal, utilize special noise diode as noise source, through multistage amplification and low-pass filtering, the band-limited noise of obtaining certain amplitude is as dither signal.Because special noise diode manufacturing process complexity, cost an arm and a leg, the supply of material is not enough, and need add special supply voltage, and it is higher therefore to use cost, has also increased the complexity of circuit simultaneously.Because the individual difference that device exists is difficult to guarantee the consistency of dither signal amplitude when producing in batches, thereby influence the performance of analog to digital converter.In addition, amplify the dither signal that produces by noise tube output and lack control,, still exist a spot of spike to be coupled into the input of analog to digital converter, make it saturated, cause the deterioration of performance though the dither signal average power is very little to peak-to-average ratio.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide that a kind of cost is low, the simple analog dither signal method for generation of circuit.The present invention also provides a kind of and the corresponding device of this method.
We notice, the broadband operational amplifier that some is general, have fixing noise factor and higher gain bandwidth product (GBW), utilize the active noise of these amplifiers self to amplify and carry out a series of processing, can obtain being fit to the dither signal that the analog to digital converter scrambling is used.
