    • The invention comprises an n-bit analog-to-digital flash converter comprising 2n/2 input comparators, each having a first input coupled to receive the analog voltage to be converted and a second input coupled to a different reference voltage. The reference voltages of each consecutive input comparator are spaced apart two LSBs of the converter. Each input comparator has two outputs, OUT and an inverted version thereof, O^¨B7U^¨B7T^¨B7. 2n-1 consecutive latches are provided. Every other latch receives at its inputs the OUT and O^¨B7U^¨B7T^¨B7 signals from a single associated input comparator. All other latches receive the OUT signal of one of the input comparators and the O^¨B7U^¨B7T^¨B7 signal of an adjacent input comparator. The latches having inputs coupled to the OUT and O^¨B7U^¨B7T^¨B7 signals of a single input comparator produce a comparison output which change state every two LSBs of the converter and the latches having one input coupled to the OUT signal of one input comparator and the O^¨B7U^¨B7T^¨B7 signal of an adjacent input comparator produce comparison signals which change state halfway between the output signals of the adjacent latches. Thus, a comparison output is provided for every LSB of the full scale range of the converter using only 2n/2 input comparators.

    • A protection circuit inhibits saturation and damage of sensitive circuit elements (54) when an input signal goes out of a nominal input range. The protection circuit includes an out-of-range detector (52) which compares the input signal to reference levels to determine if it is within the range. If it is not, a control circuit (62, 64) substitutes a supplemental signal that is slightly out of range, but not so far out of range as to cause any substantial saturation. Supplemental signal sources that produce supplemental signals slightly outside the high and low ends of the range with error margins, not more than about 750 mV, that lie just outside the range; an out-of-range input is replaced by the supplemental signal with the closest value. The invention is particularly applicable to multi-step/subranging analog-to-digital/converters.

    • Open-loop differential amplifiers (120, 140) are disclosed which have accurate and stable gain. The gain of these amplifiers is substantially insensitive to the effects of small-signal emitter resistance re, current gain beta and Early voltage VA. Thus, their gain can be accurately set by resistance ratios which makes them particularly useful in integrated circuits. These advantages are obtained with an output differential pair (67) that has cross-coupled base and collector terminals. In addition, resistors (141, 143, 148, 150) and a current source (146) associated with this differential pair are related to like elements (27, 28, 24, 25 and 26) that are associated with an input differential pair (21) by disclosed numerical ratios, e.g., the nominal gain G of the amplifier. Versions of the amplifiers can be adapted for use as a residue amplifier (162) in a subranging A/D converter (160).

    • A new differential ladder/comparator circuit reduces settling time delays in parallel analog-to-digital converters. A parallel analog-to-digital converter includes a pair of differential resistor ladders (L3, L4) having their taps connected to a group of comparators. The comparators produce digital "thermometer" scale outputs corresponding to analog signals impressed upon the differential ladders. By employing double-value resistors to form the "rungs" of the ladders and by connecting the comparators to the ladders taps in a way that increases the number of comparator inputs connected to the ladders' lower-order taps and decreases the number of comparator inputs connected to the ladders' higher order taps, the input impedance presented by the ladder/comparator combination is reduced in comparison with conventional differential ladder parallel ADCs. Additionally, input signal are superimposed on the ladders by drivers (Q1, Q2) which, in a preferred embodiment, present lower output impedances to the ladders than prior art drivers, further improving the bandwidth of the ADC.
    • 新的差分梯形图/比较器电路减少了并行模数转换器的稳定时间延迟。 并行模数转换器包括一对具有连接到一组比较器的抽头的差分电阻梯(L3,L4)。 比较器产生对应于印在差分梯子上的模拟信号的数字“温度计”量程输出。 通过采用双值电阻器来形成梯子的“梯级”,并通过将比较器连接到梯形抽头,以增加连接到梯级低阶抽头的比较器输入的数量并减少比较器输入的数量 连接到梯子的高阶抽头,与传统的差分梯形并行ADC相比,梯形图/比较器组合所呈现的输入阻抗减小。 另外,在优选实施例中,驱动器(Q1,Q2)将输入信号叠加在梯子上,驱动器(Q1,Q2)比现有技术的驱动器向梯子呈现较低的输出阻抗,进一步提高了ADC的带宽。
