Abstract

In this paper, we propose an efficient technique to minimize the input offset of a dynamic latch comparator. We analyzed offset due to charge injection mismatching and unwanted positive feedback during sampling phase. The last one was only considered in the previous works. Based on the analysis, we proposed a modified dynamic latch with initialization switch. The proposed circuit was simulated using 0.65$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process parameter with 5v supply. The simulation results showed that the input offset is less than 5mv at 200㎒ sampling frequency and the input offset is improved about 80% compared with previous work in 5k$\Omega$ input resistance.
