Abstract
In this paper, an 1.8V 8-bit 500MSPS CMOS A/D Converter is proposed. In order to obtain the resolution of 8bits and high-speed operation, a Cascaded-Folding Cascaded-Interpolation type architecture is chosen. For the purpose of improving SNR, Cascaded-folding Cascaded-interpolation technique, distributed track and hold are included [1]. A novel folding circuit, a novel Digital Encoder, a circuit to reduce the Reference Fluctuation are proposed. The chip has been fabricated with a $0.18{\mu}m$ 1-poly 5-metal n-well CMOS technology. The effective chip area is $1050{\mu}m{\times}820{\mu}m$ and it dissipates about 146mW at 1.8V power supply. The INL and DNL are within ${\pm}1LSB$, respectively. The SNDR is about 43.72dB at 500MHz sampling frequency.
