摘要： Mechanisms to calibrate a digital to analog converter (DAC) of an SDM (sigma delta modulator) are disclosed. An extra DAC element in addition to the DAC is used to function in place of a DAC element under calibration. A signal (e.g., a random sequence of −1 and +1) is injected to the DAC element under calibration, and the estimated error and compensation are acquired.

摘要： A switched-capacitor circuit is disclosed. The switched-capacitor circuit includes a comparator having a first and second input, a first and second sampling capacitor, and a first and second switching circuitry. The first switching circuitry charges the first and second sampling capacitor with an input signal. The second switching circuitry selectively couples the first sampling capacitor with a reference voltage and selectively couples the second sampling capacitor and the first and second input of the comparator to a common voltage. The comparator performs a compare of the input signals against the reference voltage, and outputs a signal.

摘要： An analog to digital convertor (ADC) includes a plurality of comparators one of which is referred to as an auxiliary comparator (e.g., comparator “Aux”). This comparator Aux is calibrated in the background while other comparators function as usual. Once having been calibrated, the comparator Aux replaces a first comparator, which becomes a new comparator Aux, is calibrated, and replaces the second comparator. This second comparator becomes the new comparator Aux, is calibrated, and replaces the third comparator, etc., until all comparators are calibrated. In effect, at any one point in time, a comparator may be calibrated as desire while other comparators and thus the ADC are operating as usual.

摘要： A method of calibrating a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is provided. The DAC includes a least-significant bit (LSB) block, and dummy LSB block adjacent to the LSB block. The DAC has a most-significant bit (MSB) block, which includes MSB thermometer macros. The method includes measuring the dummy LSB block to obtain a dummy LSB sum; and calibrating the MSB block so that each of the MSB thermometer macros provides a substantially same current as the dummy LSB sum.

摘要： An analog-to-digital (ADC) calibration apparatus comprises a calibration buffer, a comparator and a digital calibration block. Each reference voltage is sent to a track-and-hold amplifier as well as the calibration buffer. The comparator compares the output from the track-and-hold amplifier and the output from the calibration buffer and generates a binary number. Based upon a successive approximation method, the digital calibration block finds a correction voltage for ADC offset and nonlinearity compensation. By employing the ADC calibration apparatus, each reference voltage can be calibrated and the corresponding correction voltage can be used to modify the reference voltage during an ADC process.
