    Abstract: A sampling device includes a switch capacitor circuit. First ends of two switches are respectively connected to an input signal. Second end of the first switch is connected to an upper plate of a first capacitor. Second end of the second switch is connected to a lower plate of a second capacitor. A connection node connecting a lower plate of the first capacitor to an upper plate of the second capacitor is connected to a power source. The first ends of a third switch and a fourth switch are respectively connected to an input common-mode voltage. A second end of the third switch is connected to the upper plate of the first capacitor. A second end of the fourth switch is connected to the lower plate of the second capacitor. The connection node is connected to the power source. Thus, an output common-mode voltage of the sampling device is adjustable.

    Abstract: A dither circuit for high-resolution analog-to-digital converters(ADCs) is presented, including a settable pseudorandom sequence generator, a trimming module, a trimmable digital-to-analog conversion circuit, a dither introduced circuit and a dither elimination circuit, wherein the settable pseudorandom sequence generator works to generate pseudorandom sequence signal uncorrelated to analog input signal and its output can be set, of which n bit output is taken as digital dither signal and n can be less than the quantization bit of the ADC; the trimming module works to determine the trimming signals for the trimmable digital-to-analog conversion circuit to convert the digital dither signal into analog dither signal precisely; the dither introduced circuit works to introduce the analog dither signal to the ADC; the dither elimination circuit works to remove the digital dither signal from the output of ADC. The dither circuit features less complexity and better dynamic performance for high-resolution ADC.

    Abstract: A comparator offset voltage self-correction circuit is disclosed. A comparator offset voltage which is caused by the semiconductor process parameter randomness also has randomness. Due to the randomness of the comparator offset voltage, a reference voltage of a parallel comparator in a parallel-conversion-type analog-to-digital converter is uncertain. If the comparator offset voltage is large, the parallel-conversion-type analog-to-digital converter may even have a functional error. The comparator offset voltage self-correction circuit provided in the present invention can correct a random offset voltage of a comparator to meet requirements. Therefore, by means of the circuit and a method provided in the present invention, adverse influence of the random offset of the comparator on the function and the performance of the parallel-conversion-type analog-to-digital converter is eliminated, thereby greatly improving the speed and the performance of the analog-to-digital converter, in particular the parallel-conversion-type analog-to-digital converter.
