In order to improve the precision of the first few bits and not to over-occupy hardware resources, the present invention selects to split the first 5 bits into 31 DEM unit capacitors, plus a pseudo-random number generator, to produce corresponding capacitor selection bits. The inter-level scaling capacitor relaxes the multiple requirements of the residual amplifier, from the original 256 times (first level) and 128 times (second level), to 32 times. In calibration mode, the collected data is processed twice, the dither disturbance component is introduced by the dither injection capacitor for the first time, and the dither disturbance component is not injected for the second time, and the difference of the two processing results is iteratively corrected under the block LMS calibration algorithm. After millions of corrections, the correct weight can be obtained, and then the correct result is obtained with the correct weight.
[0015] Continue to refer Figure 1 The first-level ADC subcircuit includes a random number generator, a DEM module, a first-level DAC module, a first-level comparator and a first-level SAR logic circuit; the output end of the random number generator is connected to the input of the DEM module, the output end of the DEM module is connected to the first end of the first-level DAC module, the second end of the first-level DAC module is connected to the Vip signal or the Vref signal, the inverting end of the first-level comparator is grounded, the output end is connected to the input end of the first-level SAR logic circuit and the input end of the second-level ADC subcircuit, the output end of the first-level SAR logic circuit is connected to the control end of the first-level DAC module, and is used to control the second end of the first-level DAC module to access the Vip signal or the Vref signal; the output end of the first-level SAR logic circuit is also connected to the input end of the dither injection calibration algorithm module.

As shown in the document (esper Steensgaard-Madsen, "Analog-to-digital converter system and method", United States Patent Number 8,810,443), when the present invention performs quantization of the first 5 bits, 16, 8, 4, 2, and 1 times of the DEM unit capacitor will be randomly selected in turn for quantization, so that the product of the first 5 bits of the digital code and the weight has a characteristic similar to that of white noise, and will be averaged and suppressed under a limited noise bandwidth.
[0027] Continue to refer Figure 1 The n-th level ADC subcircuit of the present invention comprises an n-th level residual amplifier, an n-th level scaling capacitor, an n-th level comparator, an n-th level DAC module and an n-th level SAR logic circuit; n ranges from 2 to N;
[0028] Among them, the in-phase end of the n-th stage residual amplifier is connected to the output end of the 1st stage ADC sub-circuit, and the inverting end is grounded; the output end of the n-th stage residual amplifier is connected to the upper plate of the n-th stage scaling capacitor, the first end of the n-th stage DAC module and the in-phase end of the n-th stage comparator; the lower plate of the n-th stage scaling capacitor and the second end of the n-th stage DAC module are connected to the Vcm signal or the Vref signal; the inverting end of the n-th stage comparator is grounded, the output end is connected to the input end of the n-th stage SAR logic circuit and the input end of the n+1-th stage ADC sub-circuit; the output end of the n-th stage SAR logic circuit is connected to the control end of the n-th stage DAC module, which is used to control the second end of the DAC module to access the Vcm signal or the Vref signal; the output end of the n-th stage SAR logic circuit is also connected to the input end of the dither injection calibration algorithm module.
[0029] The nth stage residual amplifier is used to amplify the voltage signal of the capacitor upper plate of the previous stage ADC subcircuit at the 10th time to obtain a residual amplified signal;
[0030] The n-th stage scaling capacitor is used to further amplify the n-th stage residual amplified signal to obtain an amplified signal;

[0038] Among them, the upper plates of the 9 capacitors are the first end of the n-th level DAC module, connected to the non-inverting end of the n+1-th level comparator, and the lower plates are the second end of the n-th level DAC module.
[0039] Figure 1 The scaling capacitor in the paper is the same as that in the literature (Rao Chenguang, Xiao Rui, Sang Qinghua, et al. Design of high-performance margin amplifier for Piplined-SAR ADC based on g_(m) / I_(d) method [J]. Microelectronics, 2021, 51(3): 8). Figure 1 Catt_b = 7*Catt_a, Catt_d = 31*Catt_c. Figure 1 For example, the first and second levels in the figure need to be enlarged by 2 8 = 256 times, which is very difficult to achieve. The voltage is divided by capacitors Catt_a, Catt_b and the capacitor array of the second stage 512C0 (where C0 is a unit capacitor). Because 512C0>>Catt_a+Catt_b, we have:
[0040]
[0041] Among them, V ref is the reference voltage of level 1, V ref2 is the reference voltage of the second stage, that is, the reference voltage V ref2 is scaled down to the first level reference voltage V refThen the actual gain of the residual amplifier between the first stage and the second stage is 256 / 8=32.
[0042] Similarly, the voltage between the second and third levels is divided by Catt_c, Catt_d and the capacitor array of the third level 512C0, and the reference voltage V ref3 The compression is small to the first level reference voltage V ref 1 / 32 of the second level reference voltage V ref 1 / 4 of the 2nd and 3rd stages, the magnification between the 2nd and 3rd stages is 128 / 4=32.
[0043] Continue to refer Figure 1 The dither injection calibration algorithm module calibrates all weights according to all comparison result digital codes to obtain calibrated weights including:
[0044] Receive all comparison result digital codes output twice by the ADC subcircuit connected by the N-stage pipeline;
[0045] For all the comparison result digital codes of the two outputs, the same position is set to 0 or 1 according to whether the disturbance is added or not;
[0046] Calculate the difference between all comparison result digital codes with and without adding disturbance;
[0047] Calculating an error function using the difference and an initial weight of the introduced disturbance capacitor;
[0048] The weights are updated and calibrated multiple times using the error function to obtain updated weights.
[0049] Figure 1 The dither injection calibration algorithm module based on the block LMS algorithm is different from the literature (Hongxing Li, Mark Maddox, Michael CWColn, et al. A Signal-Independent Background-Calibrating 20b1MS / s SAR ADC with 0.3ppm INL. ISSCC, 2018) in that: when performing dither injection, the present invention is performed on the same circuit.
[0050] In the calibration mode, the present invention performs two quantizations for each data sampling. A small disturbance dither is injected into the input during the first quantization, while no dither is injected during the second quantization. The difference Δ between the two is a disturbance introduced in the analog domain. Ideally, if there is no capacitor mismatch in the circuit, then only the disturbance needs to be subtracted in the digital domain, and the result will not change. However, in actual situations, if there is a capacitor mismatch in the circuit, nonlinear errors will be introduced, and Δ contains information about this error.
[0051] Δ=D A -D B (2)
[0052] In the above formula, Δ represents the difference between the two quantization results, D A It represents the quantified result after the first injection of dither, D B It shows the result of the second quantification without dither injection.
[0053] e=Δ×W(3)
[0054] e represents the error function, which represents the degree of deviation between the current weight and the true value.
[0055] W (new) =W (old )-μ×Δ T ×e (4)
[0056] Formula (3) is an iterative formula that continuously updates the weights, where W (new) is the updated new weight, W (old) is the old weight before the update, μ is the step size coefficient that controls the iteration speed, Δ T is the transposed matrix of the matrix Δ.
[0057]
[0058] After multiple iterations of the block LMS algorithm, since the calculation amount of LMS is too large for one million times, in order to reduce the amount of calculation, the sum of the error function can be accumulated L times, and then the weight update can be performed again. By continuously adjusting the initial weight, the error is continuously reduced until it is close to the acceptable range, and finally the introduced disturbance dither is subtracted in the digital domain to obtain the weight that meets the accuracy requirements. The following example illustrates the specific process of performing multiple iterations and updating the weights by the block LMS algorithm of the present invention:
[0059] For example, the initial weight W0 = [w1, w2, w3 ... w 28 ] T , introduce the disturbance injection capacitor C_dither, insert it at position w9 and w 10Between, w_dither=w9, then W0'=[w1,w2,w3…w9,w_dither,w 10 …w 28 ] T For example, in standard mode, sample once quantized:
[0060] The quantitative data of C_dither introduced for the first time is:
[0061] D A =[10010101111101011110101100101];
[0062] The second quantitative data without introducing C_dither is:
[0063] D B =[01010101011101011110101100101];
[0064] The difference between the two is: Δ=D A -D B =[010000001000000000000000000000];
[0065] The error function is:
[0066] The error update method is expressed as: block_sum(new)=block_sum(old)+Δ T *e;
[0067] After the error block_sum is accumulated 32 times, that is, L = 32, the weight is updated once, and the update method is: W(new) = W(old)-u*block_sum, where u is the step coefficient that controls the iteration speed. A total of 2 calibrations are required. 20 times, among which, the first 2 14 times, u=2 -5 , the iteration speed is faster. 14 times, u=2 -9 , the iteration speed is slow because,2 20 ÷32=2 15 , 2 15 =2 14 +2 14 .

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
