Abstract

In this paper, a fully integrable 8 bit series-parallel AD converter based on a new "floating ADC" principle is presented. Cross-plot tests of the experimental converter revealed that the differential nonlinearity of the 8 bit system will be less than ± LSB for an analog input voltage of fV pp· A converter of this type provides a good alternative to the all parallel system at sampling frequencies up to 100 M Hz. when chip size and power dissipation must be reduced.
