A Low-power Area-efficient Switching Scheme for Charge-sharing DACs in SAR ADCs

Analysis and experimental results for a new switching scheme and topology for charge sharing DACs used in successive approximation register (SAR) ADCs is presented. The characteristics of the SAR algorithm are exploited to develop a switching scheme that reduces the number of required unit capacitor...
