- Abstract
In this article, the innovative ADC modeling algorithm is described. It is well suitable for Nyquist-rate ADC error back annotation. This algorithm is the next step of building a support tool for IC design engineers. The inspiration for us was the work [2]. Here, the ADC behavior is divided into HCF (High Code Frequency) and LCF (Low Code Frequency) separated independent parts. This paper is based on the same concept but the model coefficients are estimated in a different way only from INL data. The HCF order recognition part was newly added as well. Thanks" to that the HCF coefficients number is lower in comparison with the original Grimaldi's work (especially for converters with low ratio between HCF and "random" part of INL). Modeling results are demonstrated on a real data set measured by ASICentrum on charge-redistribution type SAR ADC chip. Results are shown not only by coefficient values but also by the Model Coverage metrics. Model limitations are also discussed.
