Abstract

Multi-stage folding A/D converter circuit with $0.25{\mu}m$ N-well CMOS technology is designed. This A/D converter consists of a transconductance circuit, linear folder circuit and 1bit A/D converter circuit. In H-spice simulation results, linear folder circuits having high linearity can be obtained when the current mode is used instead of voltage mode. And in case of 6bit, the delay time is limited about 40ns. From this results, 6bit 25MSPS A/D converter circuit can be realized.

[ $0.25{\mu}m$ ] N-well CMOS 공정기술을 이용하여 전류 구동형 A/D 변환기 회로를 설계하였다. 설계된 회로도에는 트랜스컨덕턴스(transconductance), 선형 폴더(folder) 회로 및 1 비트 A/D 변환기로 구성되어 있다. 트렌스컨덕턴스 회로를 이용하여 입력전압을 전류로 변환시킨 후 변환된 전류신호를 이용하여 선형성이 매우 양호한 폴더 회로를 얻을 수 있었다. 폴더 회로를 다단으로 종속접속시킴으로써 n비트 A/D 변환기로 확장할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 설계된 A/D 변환기는 대략 25MSPS으로 구동할 수 있는 6비트 A/D 변환기 회로이다.
