Abstract
A dither circuit for high-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) is presented, including a settable pseudorandom sequence generator, a trimming module, a trimmable digital-to-analog conversion circuit, a dither introduced circuit and a dither elimination circuit, wherein the settable pseudorandom sequence generator works to generate pseudorandom sequence signal uncorrelated to analog input signal and its output can be set, of which n bit output is taken as digital dither signal and n can be less than the quantization bit of the ADC; the trimming module works to determine the trimming signals for the trimmable digital-to-analog conversion circuit to convert the digital dither signal into analog dither signal precisely; the dither introduced circuit works to introduce the analog dither signal to the ADC; the dither elimination circuit works to remove the digital dither signal from the output of ADC. The dither circuit features less complexity and better dynamic performance for high-resolution ADC.
