Abstract
A 1.25GS/s 7b single-channel SAR ADC is presented with an SNDR/SFDR of 41.4dB/51dB at low frequencies, while the SNDR/SFDR at Nyquist are 40.1dB/52dB and remain still 36.4dB/50.1dB at 5GHz. The high input frequency linearity is enabled by a fast bootstrap circuit for the input switch, while the high sampling rate, the highest among recently published >34dB SNDR single-channel SAR ADCs is achieved by a Triple-Tail dynamic comparator and a Unit-Switch-Plus-Cap (USPC) DAC. The prototype ADC in 28nm CMOS consumes only 3.56mW from a 1V supply, leading to a Walden FoM of 34.4fJ/conv-step at Nyquist for a core chip area of 0.0071mm 2 .
