Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter, ADC, is provided. The ADC comprises multiple time-interleaved sub-ADCs, a detection circuit, and a calibration circuit. The sub-ADCs are configured to, when the ADC is in a calibration mode, generate a first signal by sampling a calibration signal based on a first clock signal and at least a second clock signal. The first clock signal comprises a phase shift relative to the second clock signal. The calibration circuit is configured to determine a first mismatch between the phase shift and a phase shift threshold based on the first signal. The detection circuit is configured to, when the ADC is in an operation mode, generate a second signal by sampling one of a biased signal to be received by the sub-ADCs or a second calibration signal based on at least one of the first clock signal and the second clock signal.

Abstract: A mixer-first receiver operates to generate filtering and analog-to-digital conversion concurrently and adaptively, while removing an LNA before a mixer to enable integration with digital baseband circuits. A plurality of switching capacitor arrays are integrated with a hybrid analog-to-digital filtering component. Switching capacitor arrays of the plurality of switching capacitor arrays can be selectively modified to perform both the filtering operation and the conversion operation together. The same switch capacitors of a switching capacitor array can be utilized in one phase of a clock cycle for the filtering and in another phase of the clock cycle for the conversion.
