  • Publication number: 20180175873
    Abstract: An integrated circuit chip includes an interleaved analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and an interleaving calibration circuit. The interleaved ADC includes a plurality of ADCs that are each configured to sample an analog signal. The interleaved ADC is configured to convert the analog signal into an interleaved analog-to-digital signal (IADC signal) that includes a plurality of spurious signals formed from mismatches between the plurality of ADCs. The interleaving calibration circuit is configured to receive the IADC signal from the interleaved ADC, generate a mismatch profile estimate corresponding to the plurality of spurious signals to generate one or more mismatch profile estimates, determine whether a first mismatch profile estimate is in a frequency band of interest, and, in response to a determination that the first mismatch profile estimate is in the frequency band of interest, generate a set of model parameters based on the first mismatch profile estimate.

  • Publication number: 20180097525
    Abstract: Circuitry for correcting non-linearity of an analog-to-digital converter. A non-linearity correction system for an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes coefficient storage, coefficient transformation circuitry, and correction circuitry. The coefficient storage is encoded with a first set of coefficients for correcting non-linearity of the ADC at a first sampling rate. The coefficient transformation circuitry is coupled to the coefficient storage. The coefficient transformation circuitry is configured to generate a second set of coefficients for correcting non-linearity of the ADC at a different sampling rate. The correction circuitry is configured to apply the second set of coefficients to correct non-linearity in output of the ADC while the ADC is operating at the different sampling rate.
