Abstract: A system for digitizing a sampled input value includes a digital-to-analog converter for generating an output signal as a function of (1) the sampled input value, (2) a reference value, and (3) digital codes, and a multi-bit analog-to-digital converter for determining the digital codes in first, intermediate, and subsequent cycles. Dither is dynamically added to the digital-to-analog converter in the intermediate cycle. The dither is corrected for in the subsequent cycle.

Abstract: A system (and associated method) includes an input flip-flop, a counter, and a clock tree. The input flip-flop includes a clock input terminal configured to be coupled to a device clock, or a clock generated from a phase-locked loop, and a data input terminal configured to be coupled to a first reference signal. The input flip-flop is configured to use the device clock to latch the reference signal to produce a latched reference signal. The counter is configured to count pulses of the device clock starting upon detection of the latched reference signal and to output a second reference signal comprising a pulse for every L pulses of the device clock. The clock tree is configured to divide down the device clock to generate a first output clock. The clock tree is configured to be synchronized by a pulse of the second reference signal.

Abstract: A voltage regulator that provides feedforward cancellation of power supply noise is disclosed. The voltage regulator includes a process tracking circuit that receives a supply voltage and generates a proportional voltage. A tracking capacitor is coupled to the process tracking circuit and generates an injection voltage based on the proportional voltage. An Ahuja compensated regulator generates a regulated voltage. The injection voltage is provided on a feedback path of the Ahuja compensated regulator.

Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter includes a comparator, a capacitive digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and calibration circuitry. The capacitive DAC is coupled to the comparator, and includes a plurality of capacitors. The calibration circuitry is configured to adjust a value of each of the capacitors, and includes binary search circuitry and error correction circuitry. The binary search circuitry applies a binary search over a first number of bits of a multi-bit adjustment value used to adjust the value of one of the capacitors, and averages a first number of comparator output samples to determine each of the first number of bits. The error correction circuitry applies an error correction to the multi-bit adjustment value generated by the binary search, and averages a second number of comparator output samples for the error correction. The second number of comparator output samples is greater than the first number of comparator output samples.

Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter has first and second comparators and an interpolation comparator. The first comparator receives an input signal and a comparison signal, and generates an output as a function of the input signal and the comparison signal. The second comparator receives the input signal and a second comparison signal (different from the first comparison signal), and generates a second output as a function of the input signal and the second comparison signal. The interpolation comparator, operatively connected to the first and second comparators, receives the first and second outputs, and generates a third output based on relative timing of the first and second outputs.

Abstract: A digital step attenuator (DSA) includes a switch control circuit which receives the attenuated signal output by the DSA from a buffer and generates a tracked control signal for switches within the DSA. Some switch control circuits include a capacitor coupled to receive the buffered signal, a supply voltage, and a switch control logic sub-circuit for each switch. Each switch control logic sub-circuit receives a control signal, for either the gate or the bulk terminal of the switch, and generates the tracked control signal. In other embodiments, switch control circuits include a complementary MOSFET switching device coupled to receive a control signal, and a capacitor coupled to receive the buffered signal, both of which are connected to an output terminal for the tracked control signal. In those embodiments, the DSA includes a switch control circuit for each switch connected to the DSA output.
