  • Metastability error reduction in asynchronous successive approximation analog to digital converter
    Patent number: 9621179
    Abstract: Various aspects facilitate error reduction for an analog to digital converter (e.g., due to metastability). A digital to analog converter generates a scaled reference voltage based on a reference voltage. A comparator component performs a comparison between an input voltage and the scaled reference voltage based on a defined period of time to perform the comparison.

  • Gain calibration by applying a portion of an input voltage to voltage associated with a capacitor array
    Patent number: 9602119
    Abstract: Various aspects facilitate gain adjustment associated with an analog to digital converter. A capacitor array comprises a plurality binary-weighted capacitors and generates an output voltage received by a comparator based on an input voltage and a reference voltage. A gain calibration component receives the input voltage and applies a modified input voltage that corresponds to a portion of the input voltage to the output voltage generated by the capacitor array component.
