Abstract
An 8b 1GS/s ADC is presented that interleaves two 2b/cycle SARs. To enhance speed and save power, the prototype utilizes segmentation switching and custom-designed DAC array with high density in a low parasitic layout structure. It operates at 1GS/s from 1V supply without interleaving calibration and consumes 3.8mW of power, exhibiting a FoM of 24fJ/conversion step. The ADC occupies an active area of 0.013mm2 in 65nm CMOS including on-chip offset calibration.
