The embodiment of the present invention proposes a kind of successive approximation analog-digital converter, it can under not needing to use the prerequisite of extra reference voltage as common mode reference voltage (common-mode voltage), realize the operation that (offset cancellation) and Analog-digital Converter are eliminated in skew, to simplify design of integer electro-circuit.In addition, pass through proposed circuit framework and also effectively can reduce the noise jamming of circuit operation when high frequency, thus make the analog-digital converter of the embodiment of the present invention can have better signal to noise ratio (signal-to-noise ratio, SNR) characteristic.In order to make content of the present invention more easily be understood, below especially exemplified by the example that embodiment can be implemented really according to this as the present invention.In addition, all may part, in graphic and execution mode, use the element/component/step of same reference numerals, represent identical or like.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the successive approximation analog-digital converter of one embodiment of the invention.Please refer to Fig. 1, the successive approximation analog-digital converter (being called for short SAR-ADC below) 100 of the present embodiment is suitable for a digital output signal DOUT analog input signal VIN being converted to a N bit resolution, and wherein N is positive integer (is such as 4,12 or 16 etc.).SAR-ADC100 comprises D/A conversion circuit (being called for short DAC-circuit below) 110, sample-and-hold circuit 120, comparison circuit 130 and successive approximation logic control circuit (being called for short SAR logic control circuit below) 140.
In the present embodiment, DAC-circuit 110 is for being converted to the comparison signal VC of analog form by the N received from SAR logic control circuit 140 bit digital logical signal Q [N].Sample-and-hold circuit 120 is for sampling and keeping analog input signal VIN.Comparison circuit 130 couples DAC-circuit 110 and sample-and-hold circuit 120, for the analog input signal VIN that kept by sample-and-hold circuit 120 as the benchmark compared with comparison signal VC, thus produces compare result signal VCMP.The compare result signal VCMP that SAR logic control circuit 140 can export according to comparison circuit 130 determines the logic state of each of digital logic signal Q [N] one by one, to produce the digital output signal DOUT being associated with analog input signal VIN.
Specifically, the operation of the Analog-digital Converter of SAR-ADC100 can be divided into two period/stage, be respectively sampling and keep (sample-and-hold) period and Charge scaling (charge-redistribution) period.During sampling keeps, DAC-circuit 110 and sample-and-hold circuit 120 can be controlled by SAR logic control circuit 140 and carry out sampling and keep the action of analog input signal VIN, and analog input signal VIN can be provided to two inputs of comparison circuit 130 in the mode of common mode, thus making comparison circuit 130 can carry out offseting the operation eliminated, the common-mode gain with seasonal comparison circuit 130 can be initialized to 0.
After terminating during sampling keeps, during SAR-ADC100 successively can enter Charge scaling.During Charge scaling, SAR logic control circuit 130 can adopt binary search algorithm to determine the logic state of each (this part can further illustrate in subsequent embodiment) of digital logic signal Q [N] one by one, makes DAC-circuit 110 produce voltage quasi position and progressively levels off to the comparison signal VC of analog input signal VIN.In digital logic signal Q [N] each all through SAR logic control circuit 140 according to compare result signal VCMP after adjusting, SAR logic control circuit 140 terminates during namely judging Charge scaling, and produces digital output signal DOUT based on the logic state of final digital logic signal Q [N].
Concrete framework and the operation of the SAR-ADC of the further description embodiment of the present invention is come below with Fig. 2 embodiment.Wherein, Fig. 2 is the schematic diagram of the SAR-ADC of another embodiment of the present invention.
Please refer to Fig. 2, the SAR-ADC200 of the present embodiment comprises DAC-circuit 210, sample-and-hold circuit 220, comparison circuit 230 and SAR logic control circuit 240.Wherein, DAC-circuit 210 comprises N number of electric capacity C1 ~ CN and N number of switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N.Sampling keeping unit 220 comprises sampling switch 222,224 and holding capacitor Ch.Comparison circuit 230 comprises comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M, latch lock unit 234, M group feedback unit 236_1 ~ 236_M and the M group capacitor cell 238_1 ~ 238_M that M level is connected in series mutually, and wherein M is positive integer.
In DAC-circuit 210, the first end of electric capacity C1 ~ CN couples the sampling switch 222 of sample-and-hold circuit 220 jointly.Wherein, the capacitance ratio of electric capacity C1 to electric capacity CN sequentially can be designed to 2N-1 to 20.For example, if the capacitance of electric capacity C1 is designed to C, then electric capacity C2, C3 ... the capacitance of CN can sequentially be designed to C/2, C/4 ..., C/2N-1, by that analogy.Second end of switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N difference coupling capacitance C1 ~ CN, and optionally provide high logic voltage VH, low logic voltage VL and analog input signal VIN one of them electric capacity C1 ~ CN to correspondence for being controlled by SAR logic control circuit 240.Wherein, high logic voltage VH and low logic voltage VL is the analog input interval (that is, the level of analog input signal VIN can between VH and VL) of SAR-ADC200.
In the present embodiment, digital logic signal Q [N] for controlling DAC-circuit 210 can be made up of position q [1] ~ q [N], at this, position q [1] is sequentially respectively highest order (the most significant bit of digital logic signal Q [N] to q [N], MSB) to lowest order (least significant bit, LSB).Wherein, each q [1] ~ q [N] can be considered as in during Charge scaling respectively for controlling the control signal of corresponding switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N.In other words, the highest order q [1] to lowest order q [N] of N bit digital logical signal Q [N] understands the switching of sequentially corresponding control switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N in during Charge scaling.For example, in during Charge scaling, switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N sequentially can react on high logic level (such as, logic level " 1 ") position q [1] ~ q [N] and select provide high logic voltage VH to the electric capacity C1 ~ CN of correspondence, and react on position q [the 1] ~ q [N] of low logic level (such as, logic level " 0 ") and select to provide low logic voltage VL to the electric capacity C1 ~ CN of correspondence.
Further for the SAR-ADC200 of 4 (namely, N=4), in during Charge scaling, if the digital logic signal Q [N] that SAR logic control circuit 240 provides is " 1000 ", then represent first/highest order q [1] counterlogic level " 1 ", second q [2] counterlogic level " 0 ", the 3rd q [3] counterlogic level " 0 " and the 4th/lowest order q [4] counterlogic level " 0 ".Based under above-mentioned logic state, switch module 212_1 can react on the position q [1] of logic level " 1 " and provide high logic voltage VH to the electric capacity C1 of correspondence, and switch module 212_2,212_3 and 212_4 then can react on position q [2], the q [3] of logic level " 0 " and q [4] and provide low logic voltage VL to electric capacity C2, C3 and C4 of correspondence.Therefore, under this configuration, it is in parallel that DAC-circuit 210 can be equivalent to electric capacity C2, C3 and C4, and the voltage quasi position of the comparison signal VC that DAC-circuit 210 produces can the result after the pressure reduction to high logic voltage VH and low logic voltage VL carries out dividing potential drop according to electric capacity C1 and described shunt capacitance determine.
At this using concrete numerical value as example, if the capacitance ratio that high logic voltage VH is 3V, low logic voltage VL is 0V and electric capacity C1 ~ C4 is sequentially 1:1/2:1/4:1/8, when DAC-circuit 210 receives digital logic signal Q [N] that logic state is " 1000 ", electric capacity C2, C3 and C4 three can be equivalent to a shunt capacitance, and the capacitance ratio of described shunt capacitance and electric capacity C1 about slightly 1:1 (being actually 1:7/8 (1/2+1/4+1/8)).Under this configuration, electric capacity C1 has identical resistance value with described shunt capacitance is rough, make the high logic voltage VH of 3V after the dividing potential drop of electric capacity C1 and described shunt capacitance, produce the comparison signal VC that voltage quasi position is about 1.5V (i.e. 1/2VH).Operation/the function mode of the DAC-circuit 210 of 8,12 or all the other figure places all can be analogized by above-mentioned example, therefore does not repeat them here.
It is worth mentioning that at this, designer can consider based on its design and in DAC-circuit 210, increase by one group of capacitance redundancy (dummy) electric capacity identical with electric capacity CN and corresponding switch module (not illustrating), with make DAC-circuit 210 the comparison signal VC that changes out can and high logic voltage VH between there is the voltage relativeness of integral multiple, but the present invention is not as limit.
In sample-and-hold circuit 220, the first end of sampling switch 222 receives analog input signal VIN, and the second end of sampling switch 222 couple the first end of the electric capacity C1 ~ CN of DAC-circuit 210 and the positive input terminal of first order comparing unit 232_1 and negative input end one of them.The first end of sampling switch 224 receives analog input signal VIN equally, and the second end of sampling switch 224 couples the positive input terminal of first order comparing unit 232_1 and negative input end wherein another.The first end of holding capacitor Ch couples the second end of sampling switch 224, and second end of holding capacitor Ch couples earth terminal GND (0V).Wherein, sampling switch 222 and 224 synchronously can be controlled by the control signal CHG and conducting or cut-off that SAR logic control circuit 240 provides.
In comparison circuit 230, comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M can be such as the comparing unit of tool differential output, wherein the positive output end of every one-level comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M and negative output terminal can be respectively coupled to positive input terminal and the negative input end of next stage comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M, such as: the positive output end of comparing unit 232_1 and negative output terminal can be respectively coupled to positive input terminal and the negative input end of comparing unit 232_2.Latch lock unit 234 couples the output of afterbody (M level) comparing unit 232_M, it can be used for the comparative result of breech lock comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M, and produces the compare result signal VCMP of the voltage relativeness of instruction comparison signal VC and analog input signal VIN according to this.Between the input that feedback unit 236_1 ~ 236_M is respectively coupled to every one-level comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M and output.Capacitor cell 238_1 ~ 238_M is then the input being coupled in every one-level comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M respectively.
With regard to the Analog-digital Converter operation of SAR-ADC200 entirety, first, in during sampling keeps, SAR logic control circuit 240 can provide the control signal CHG of activation to come the sampling switch 222 and 224 in conducting sample-and-hold circuit 220 and the feedback unit 236_1 ~ 236_M corresponding to comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels, and reacts on the control signal CHG of activation with seasonal each switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N and select to provide analog input signal VIN to the electric capacity C1 ~ CN of correspondence.
Under this configuration, analog input signal VIN can be provided to two inputs of first order comparing unit 232_1 in the mode of common mode, and the sampling switch 224 of conducting charges to holding capacitor Ch together with seasonal analog input signal VIN, be held in holding capacitor Ch to make analog input signal VIN.In addition, feedback unit 236_1 ~ the 236_M of conducting can set up the feedback path of short circuit between the input of comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels and output, make analog input signal VIN can be provided to the input/output of every one-level comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M via capacitor cell 238_1 ~ 238_M and feedback unit 236_1 ~ 236_M, thus eliminate the offset voltage of comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels, and the common-mode gain of comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels is initialized to 0 simultaneously.
During Charge scaling, control signal CHG can be switched to forbidden energy by SAR logic control circuit 240, sampling switch 222 and 224 and feedback unit 236_1 ~ 236_M are ended, and position q [1] ~ q [N] corresponding in making each switch module 212_1 ~ 212_N change into being controlled by digital logic signal Q [N] and determine to provide logic high voltage VH or logic low-voltage VL to the electric capacity C1 ~ CN of correspondence.
Under this configuration, SAR logic control circuit 240 can first provide one group of digital logic signal Q [N] with default logic state to control DAC-circuit 210.For N=4, under binary search algorithm, the digital logic signal Q [N] of the acquiescence that SAR logic control circuit 240 provides is general is such as " 1000 " or " 0111 " (that is, corresponding to the logic state of 1/2nd logic high voltage VH, but the present invention is not limited only to this).Then, comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M can signal VC and sample-and-hold circuit 220 keep based on the comparison analog input signal VIN compare step by step, thus makes latch lock unit 234 produce corresponding compare result signal VCMP according to the comparative result of afterbody comparing unit 232_M.
Now, according to this compare result signal VCMP (corresponding to the comparison signal VC of acquiescence and the comparative result of analog input signal VIN), SAR logic control circuit 240 can determine that the logic state of highest order/the first q [1] is logic level " 1 " or " 0 ", and adjust the logic state of next bit q [2].Then, DAC-circuit 210 successively can produce corresponding comparison signal VC according to the digital logic signal Q [N] after adjustment and come to compare with analog input signal VIN, make SAR logic control circuit 240 determine the logic state of next bit q [2] again according to the compare result signal VCMP of the comparative result of corresponding this comparison signal VC and analog input signal VIN, and adjust the logic state of next bit q [3] again.By aforesaid operation, SAR logic control circuit 240 can during Charge scaling in sequentially determine the logic state of each q [1] ~ q [N].
More particularly, in the operation of logic state determining each q [1] ~ q [N] one by one, DAC-circuit 210 can be adjusted by the logic state of highest order q [1] to lowest order q [N] along with digital logic signal Q [N] and produce and progressively level off to the comparison signal VC of voltage quasi position of analog input signal VIN.In other words, (determined the logic state of lowest order q [N]) at the end of during Charge scaling, the digital logic signal Q [N] that 240 decodings of SAR logic control circuit go out is the digital output signal DOUT corresponding to analog input signal VIN.
From the concrete operations flow process of above-mentioned SAR-ADC200, by the configuration of the sample-and-hold circuit 220 of the embodiment of the present invention, SAR-ADC200 can during sampling keeps in the utilization analog input signal VIN that is simultaneously provided to the positive/negative input of comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels be used as the common mode reference voltage of the offset voltage for eliminating comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels.In addition, can be maintained in holding capacitor Ch constantly in analog input signal VIN is during Charge scaling, therefore comparison circuit 230 can directly using the analog input signal VIN be held in holding capacitor Ch as the benchmark compared with comparison signal VC, and same without the need to comparing based on extra reference voltage.
In other words, compared to traditional SAR-ADC, the SAR-ADC200 of the embodiment of the present invention under the prerequisite that need not use extra reference voltage, can realize the operation carrying out offseting elimination and Analog-digital Converter to comparison circuit 230.
On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the magnitude setting of comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M is figure place N based on SAR-ADC200 and determines.More particularly, M can at least equal 1/4th of N.For example, if SAR-ADC200 is designed to 4 bit resolutions (that is, N=4), then need to arrange the comparing unit 236_1 (that is, M >=1) of at least one-level in comparison circuit 230; If SAR-ADC200 is designed to 8 bit resolutions (that is, N=8), then need to arrange comparing unit 236_1 ~ 236_2 (that is, M >=1) that at least two-stage is connected in series mutually in comparison circuit 230, all the other all can be by that analogy.
Configured by the comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M of described multi-stage serial connection, because the gain of overall comparison circuit 230 can be disperseed by comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels, therefore comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M at different levels only can need be operated on its operating point with less current drives well.Base this, compared to the comparison circuit that single comparator is formed, even if also serious noise jamming can not be caused because operating current is too high when the comparing unit 232_1 ~ 232_M of the present embodiment operates in high frequency.
