We report a high-speed flash analog to digital converter (ADC) linearization technique employing the inverse Volterra model and digital post processing.First,a 1.25 GS/s 5-bit flash ADC is designed using a 0.18μm CMOS,and the signal is quantized by a distributed track-and-hold circuit.Second,based on the Volterra series,a proposed digital post-calibration model is introduced.Then,the model is applied to estimate and compensate the nonlinearity of the high-speed flash ADC.Simulation results indicate that the distortion is reduced effectively.Specifically,the ADC achieves gains of 4.83 effective bits for a 117.1 MHz frequency input and 4.74 effective bits for a Nyquist input at 1.25 GS/s.
