A 1-GHz Bandwidth CT Pipelined ADC with Reduced Sensitivity to Clock Jitter

Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are essential in modern electronics. The advances in integrated circuits (IC) technology have improved the digital signal processing significantly, bringing the ADC performance limitations to the forefront. The performance of high-speed ADCs is often limited by clock jitter. In this work, we have designed a 1-GHz CT pipeline ADC with state-of-the-art performance and demonstrated improved tolerance to clock jitter.
