Abstract:
Methods and systems for an analog-to-digital converter with near-constant common mode voltage may comprise, in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) having sampling switches on each input line to the ADC, N double-sided and M single-sided switched capacitors on each input line: sampling an input voltage by closing the sampling switches, opening the sampling switches and comparing voltage levels between the input lines, iteratively switching the double-sided switched capacitors between a reference voltage (Vref) and ground, and iteratively switching the single-sided switched capacitors between ground and voltages that may equal Vref/2 x  where x ranges from 0 to m−1 and m is a number of single-sided switched capacitors per input line. A common mode offset of the ADC may be less than V ADC _ fs /128+V ADC _ fs /256+V ADC _ fs /512+V ADC _ fs /1024 when m equals 4 and where V ADC _ fs  is the full-scale voltage of the ADC.

Claim (Index 2):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the voltages that are less than Vref equal Vref/2 x  where x ranges from 0 to m\u22121 and m is a number of single-sided switched capacitors per input line.
