[0046] The improved offset calibration module based on charge pump includes two parts: offset calibration circuit and dummy charge pump. When entering the calibration phase, in order not to affect the calibration and comparison functions, the calibration input pair of tubes M2c to M5c of the two-stage dynamic comparator module should be connected to an appropriate reference voltage V cm , while in the traditional solution based on charge pump offset calibration, an additional first calibration capacitor Ccal1 The offset calibration circuit proposed in the present invention introduces a bootstrap pre-charging method for the lower board, that is, the first calibration capacitor C cal1 and the second calibration capacitor C cal2 The lower board is connected to the reference voltage V cm , the upper board is connected to the calibration input to the gate of the tube to ensure the power-on process, the calibration voltage V cal and calibration reference voltage V cm_cal Follow the reference voltage V cm Establish, thus eliminating the need for pre-charging circuit design.

The introduction of dummy tubes Mc3d and Mc4d can reduce the voltage on the first calibration capacitor C when Mc3 and Mc4 are turned off. cal1 Channel injection effect and clock feedthrough influence.
[0048] Among them, the clock feedthrough effect specifically refers to: for a capacitor charging circuit, when the transmission tube is turned off, part of the charge in the channel will flow into the capacitor, causing the voltage on the capacitor to change, which is the charge injection effect; when the gate terminal voltage of the transmission tube is switched quickly, it will be coupled to the capacitor through the gate-source capacitance of the transmission tube, causing the voltage on the capacitor to change, which is the clock feedthrough effect.

[0067] The gate of the MOS tube M16 is connected to the drain of the MOS tube M17 and the drain of the MOS tube M15 , and the drain of the MOS tube M15 outputs a negative signal Von to the latch buffer stage module.
[0068] Specifically, compared with the traditional pre-amplifier stage, the pre-amplifier stage structure adds a layer of nmos tubes M4 and M5, thereby improving the pre-amplifier stage input transconductance, which can effectively reduce input noise and isolate part of the kickback noise from the clock; usually in order to obtain lower input noise and input offset, the size of the pre-amplifier stage input MOS tube is set larger, so the kickback on the comparator input is particularly serious. The kickback noise is essentially the parasitic capacitance (C) of the output MOS tube pair (M2 to M5) during the switching of the clock clka. GS and C GD Specifically, when clka switches from "1" to "0", the source and drain of the input tube are quickly pulled up to the power supply voltage. This voltage drop is caused by the parasitic capacitance C GD , C GS Coupled to the input of the comparator and interferes with inp and inn. And due to the parasitic capacitance C GD , C GS The value of varies with the amplitude of the input signal (i.e., at higher input voltages generally result in larger parasitic capacitances), and the interference on INP and INN is unbalanced (i.e., the kick-back noise contains both common-mode and differential components).
[0069] In order to further reduce the impact of kickback noise, a kickback noise elimination circuit is designed, such as Figure 4 As shown. The kickback noise is eliminated by introducing MOS tubes (M1n and M6n) and input pairs (M2n to M5n) with opposite phase driving clock clk. When the source and drain voltages of the input tube pair (M2 to M5) rise, the clock clk generates an opposite voltage drop at the source and drain of the MOS tubes M2n to M5n, that is, its potential decreases accordingly, and passes through the parasitic capacitance C of the input MOS tubes M2n~M5n. GD , C GSCoupled to the pre-amplifier input, thereby canceling the kickback noise generated by the pre-amplifier itself. At the same time, the pre-amplifier adds a pair of calibration input tubes M2c to M5c to introduce unbalanced transconductance current to compensate for the input offset voltage.
[0070] The second stage of the two-stage dynamic comparator module is the output latch amplification stage. Compared with the traditional Strong ARM comparator, this structure omits the clock drive of the output latch stage, and directly uses the output V of the first stage pre-amplification stage. dp and V dn Direct drive reduces the clock drive requirements. The small deviation caused by the instantaneous amplification of the first-stage comparison can be quickly identified and amplified by the second-stage output latch, effectively improving the comparison speed.
[0071] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the latch buffer stage module includes two buffers and a NAND gate latch structure.
[0072] The NAND gate latch structure includes two NAND gates and two NOT gates; the output end of the first NAND gate U7 is connected to an input end of the second NAND gate U8, the output end of the second NAND gate U8 is connected to an input end of the first NAND gate U7, the second input end of the first NAND gate U7 and the second input end of the second NAND gate U8 both receive an enable signal en_cmp of the dynamic comparator; the output end of the first NAND gate U7 is connected to the input end of the first NOT gate U9, and the output end of the second NAND gate U8 is connected to the input end of the second NOT gate U10.

[0075] Specifically, due to the regeneration process of the output lock storage amplifier, the output of the comparator has metastable state and burrs at the moment of comparison. Figure 5 The buffers Buffer1 and Buffer2 can filter out this part of the burrs, and the NAND gate latch structure can extract the effective comparison result.
[0076] Compared with the traditional dynamic comparator, the advantage of the present application is that it introduces an improved offset self-calibration technology, which greatly reduces the input offset voltage of the dynamic comparator. The input offset voltage Monte Carlo simulation is as follows: Figure 6 (uncalibrated) and Figure 7 As shown in (Calibration), the input offset voltage after calibration is greatly reduced. At the same time, the present invention optimizes the pre-charging scheme of the calibration capacitor and eliminates the pre-charging circuit. By introducing a dummy charge pump, the gate leakage characteristics of the calibration input are guaranteed to be consistent with the tube, thereby improving the stability of the calibration. The designed kickback noise elimination circuit can reduce the kickback effect on the comparator input. Finally, the input transconductance of the pre-amplifier stage is optimized to effectively reduce the input noise.
