Linearizing a 128 Msample/S ADC

  • Chapter

Abstract

We describe a 128 Msample/s 12-bit analog-to-digital converter IC that has special circuitry on-chip to reduce the nonlinearities that make most ADCs unsuitable for highdynamic-range spectrum analysis and digital receiver applications. Dither, dynamic element matching, and output data scrambling combine to achieve 0.05-LSB DNL.
