Abstract

See full text

An example analog-to-digital converter (ADC) comprising: sample and hold circuitry coupled to an analog input; a first sub-ADC coupled to the sample and hold circuitry; a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (M-DAC) coupled to the first sub-ADC; summation circuitry coupled to the sample and hold circuitry and the M-DAC; an amplifier coupled to the summation circuitry; a second sub-ADC coupled to the amplifier; and reference generation circuitry coupled to the first sub-ADC, the M-DAC, and the second sub-ADC, the reference generation circuitry including: reference voltage circuitry coupled to the M-DAC; a first resistor coupled to the reference voltage circuitry; a second resistor coupled to the first resistor; and a capacitor coupled in parallel to the second resistor by a switch.
