    Abstract: A time interleaved ADC includes sub-ADCs that sample an analog input signal at a timing synchronized with a clock signal to convert the analog input signal into a digital output signal, delay circuits that apply a time difference to the analog input signal such that the analog input signal is input to each of the sub-ADCs with a delay of a first delay time in an arrangement order of the sub-ADCs, and delay circuits that apply a time difference to the clock signal such that the clock signal is input to each of the sub-ADCs with a delay of a second delay time in the arrangement order of the sub-ADCs.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to communication devices and provides a method and apparatus for calibrating a sampling timing skew between time-interleaved analog to digital converter (ADC) channels, a time-interleaved ADC, an electronic device, and a computer readable medium. The time-interleaved ADC includes multiple ADC channels. The method includes: calculating, for every two adjacent channels, a correlation value between digital signals of two adjacent channels, according to the digital signals output by every two adjacent channels; calculating a timing skew adjustment amount corresponding to a sampling timing skew of each of the channels relative to a reference channel according to the correlation value corresponding to every two adjacent channels, the reference channel being any designated channel among the plurality of channels; and calibrating the sampling timing skew of each of the channels relative to the reference channel according to the timing skew adjustment amount corresponding to each of the channels.
