This paper proposes a memristor-assisted sign-based background calibration scheme for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The scheme was implemented and validated in a 12-bit asynchronous SAR ADC, which consists of a hybrid binary/R-2R DAC and other peripheral circuits. The proposed calibration technique uses a memristor to detect and correct DAC mismatches, and the circuit exploits the advantages of memristors such as small area and resistance switching property. Simulation results demonstrate that memristors can improve the linearity of high-resolution SAR ADCs.
This paper proposes a memristor-assisted sign-based background calibration scheme for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The scheme was implemented and validated in a 12-bit asynchronous successive approximation register (SAR) ADC, which consists of a hybrid binary weighted/R-2R digital-to-analog converter (binary/R-2R DAC) and other peripheral circuits. This hybrid DAC, in which one redundancy bit is introduced, is built with a memristor and standard polysilicon resistors. The proposed calibration technique can detect the errors caused by DAC mismatches and correct them by adjusting the resistance of the memristor (memristance) in a feedback loop. The implemented circuit takes the memristor's advantages such as small area and resistance switching property. The proposed scheme has been designed and simulated in a standard 180 nm CMOS process. Eventually, a monolithic CMOS/memristor chip will be fabricated with the CMOS part processed at a standard foundry and the memristors integrated through post-CMOS processing in house. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of exploiting memristors to improve the linearity of high-resolution SAR ADCs. The designed calibration scheme can effectively reduce the integral non-linearity (INL) and differential non-linearity (DNL) of the 12-bit SAR ADC.
