Abstract

Two hybrid, highly digital \(\Delta \Sigma \) ADCs are presented in this work. A SAR + VCO 0-1 MASH architecture is used for a 12-bit scaling friendly ADC which does not require VCO nonlinearity correction. PVT sensitivity of VCO tuning gain is canceled by using a digital, background calibration technique. A 40 nm CMOS prototype achieves 74.3 dB SNDR while operating at 36 MS/s from 1.1 V supply. The prototype exhibits a Schreier FoM of 171 dB. A hybrid SAR \(\Delta \Sigma \) ADC is presented which uses a passive integrator to achieve first-order noise shaping. The proposed noise-shaping SAR has very high immunity against PVT variations and does not require any calibration. Fabricated in an 130 nm CMOS process, the noise-shaping SAR ADC achieves an SNDR of 74 dB while operating at 2 MS/s from 1.2 V supply. The Schreier FoM for the noise-shaping SAR is 167 dB.
