针对传统单斜式模数转换器(Analogue-to-Digital Conversion,ADC)和串行两步式ADC在面向大面阵CMOS图像传感器读出过程中的速度瓶颈问题,本文提出了一种用于高速CMOS图像传感器的全并行两步式ADC设计方法,该ADC设计方法基于时间共享和时间压缩思想,将细量化时间提前到粗量化时间段内,解决了传统方法的时间冗余问题;同时针对两步式结构在采样过程中的电荷注入和时钟馈通问题,提出了一种基于误差同步存储技术的误差校正方法,消除了采样电路非理想因素对ADC性能的影响.本文基于55 nm 1P4M CMOS工艺对所提方法完成了详细电路设计和全面测试验证,在模拟电压为3.3 V,数字电压为1.2 V,时钟频率为250 MHz,输入信号为1.472 V的设计条件下,本文设计实现的13 bit ADC转换时间为512 ns,DNL(Differential NonLinearity)为+0.8/- 0.8LSB,INL(Integral NonLinearity)为+2.1/- 3.5LSB.信噪失真比(Signal to Noise and Distortion Ratio,SNDR)达到70 dB,有效位数为11.33 bit,列级功耗为47 μW.相比现有的先进ADC,本文提出的方法在保证低功耗、高精度的同时,使ADC转换速率提高了74.4%以上,为高速高精度CMOS图像传感器的读出与量化提供了一定的理论支撑. |

Aiming at the speed bottleneck problem of traditional single-slope analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and serial two-step ADC in the readout process of large-array CMOS image sensors,this paper proposes a fully parallel two-step ADC for high speed CMOS image sensors. The ADC design method is based on the idea of time sharing and time compression, advances the fine conversion time to the coarse conversion time period, and solves the time redundancy problem of the traditional method. At the same time, aiming at the Charge Injection and Clock Feedthrough problems in the sampling process of the two-step structure, an error correction method based on the error synchronization storage technology is proposed, which eliminates the impact of the non-ideal factors of the sampling circuit on the performance of the ADC. Based on the 55 nm 1P4M CMOS process, this paper has completed the detailed circuit design and comprehensive test verification of the proposed method. Under the design conditions of analog voltage 3.3 V, digital voltage 1.2 V, clock frequency 250 MHz and input signal 1.472 V, the proposed 13-bit ADC achieves the differential nonlinearity (DNL) of +0.8/-0.8LSB and the integral nonlinearity (INL) of +2.1/-3.5LSB and Conversion time of 512 ns.The effective number of bits (ENOB) is 11.33 bit and the power consumption is 47 μW. Compared with the existing advanced ADCs, the method proposed in this paper can increase the ADC conversion rate by more than 74.4% while ensuring low power consumption and high precision, providing certain theoretical support for the readout and conversion of high-speed and high-precision CMOS image sensors. |
