Abstract

The invention discloses a low-power-consumption Radix-4 charge weight distributed type DAC and switching technology. The low-power-consumption Radix-4 charge weight distributed type DAC comprises a capacitor array, reference voltage generators and a toggle switch controlled by digital signals for making the reference voltage generators connect or disconnect with capacitors; the weight express circuits showing sizes of various capacitors in the capacitor array are quaternary circuits, and the number of the reference voltage generators is three; the switching technology comprises a common-mode level switchover downward type and a successive approximation method; according to the low-power-consumption Radix-4 charge weight distributed type DAC and the switching technology, the toggle switch is controlled by the digital signals for making the reference voltage generators connect or disconnect with capacitors, so that charges on polar plates of the various capacitors are redistributed, and analog signals are output from an output end; due to that the weights of the sizes of various capacitors in the capacitor array are quaternary, and the number of the reference voltage generators is three, so that digital-to-analogue conversion is achieved through less switching times, the switching power consumption of the DAC is reduced, needed capacitor is less, and thereby the circuit area of the DAC is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a DAC and switching technology, in particular to a charge redistribution DAC and switching technology. Background technique [0002] At present, many electronic devices such as wireless sensor nodes and bio-implanted electronic devices require low-power data converters. SAR ADCs have attracted extensive attention and research because of their simple circuit structure and low power consumption. Among them, the DAC is an important part of the SAR ADC, and the switching power consumption of the DAC also accounts for a large proportion of the total power consumption of the SAR ADC. Therefore, researching and designing low-power DAC is an important topic in the field of SAR ADC. [0003] The DAC used for SAR ADC can be realized in many ways, such as current mode DAC, R-2R type DAC, charge redistribution type DAC. Among them, the charge redistribution DAC has zero static power consumption, so most of the current SAR ADCs use the ch...
