CMOS technology scaling is creating significant issues for analog circuit design. For example, reduced signal swing and device gain make it increasingly difficult to realize high-speed, high-gain feedback loops traditionally used in switched capacitor circuits. This research involves two complementary methods for addressing scaling issues. First is the development of two blind digital calibration techniques. Decision Boundary Gap Estimation (DBGE) removes static non-linearities and Chopper Offset Estimation (COE) nulls offsets in pipelined ADCs. Second is the development of circuits for a new architecture called zero-crossing based circuits (ZCBC) that is more amenable to scaling trends. To demonstrate these circuits and algorithms, two different ADCs were designed: an 8 bit, 200MS/s in TSMC 180nm technology, and a 12 bit, 50 MS/s in IBM 90nm technology. Together these techniques can be enabling technologies for both pipelined ADCs and general mixed signal design in deep sub-micron technologies. by Lane Gearle Brooks.
