Summary :

A 7bit 1GS/s flash ADC using two bit active interpolation and background offset calibration is proposed and tested. It achieves background calibration using 36 pre-amplifiers with 139 comparators. To cancel the offset, two pre-amplifiers and 12 comparators are set to offline in turn while the others are operating. A two bit active interpolation design and an offset cancellation scheme are implemented in the latch stage. The interpolation and background calibration significantly reduce analog input signal as well as reference voltage load. Fabricated with the 90nm CMOS process, the proposed ADC consumes 95mW under a 1.2V power supply.
