Patent ID: 11522556

Abstract:
In certain aspects, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes a comparator having a first input, a second input, and an output. The ADC also includes a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) coupled to the first input of the comparator, a switching circuit, a first capacitor coupled between the first input of the comparator and the switching circuit, a second capacitor coupled between the first input of the comparator and the switching circuit, and an amplifying circuit having an input and an output, wherein the input of the amplifying circuit is coupled to the switching circuit. The ADC further includes a first switch coupled between the output of the amplifying circuit and the DAC, and a successive approximation register (SAR) having an input and an output, wherein the input of the SAR is coupled to the output of the comparator, and the output of the SAR is coupled to the DAC.
