LU Shuang-di, GAO De-yuan, WEI Ting-cun, et al. Design of Multi-channel Pipeline Digitization Circuit for Biomedical Imaging[J]. 2012, 29(4): 26-31.DOI:
Based on the multi-channel and high-speed digitization features of front-end readout circuits for biomedical imaging
a 16-channel pipeline digitization circuits is designed.The whole circuits consist of analog multiplexer
single end to differential signal conversion circuit
8-bit 25-Msample/s pipeline ADC
and data output module.Analog-to-digital conversion and data output will be executed in the pipeline way.The circuit is designed in TSMC 0.18 μm mixed signal CMOS technology.Simulation results show that
pipeline ADC has-0.62/0.67 LSB DNL
-0.39/0.72 LSB INL
45.99 dB SNR
and 6.03 bit ENOB.The designed circuits can accomplish the digitization and output of 16-channel analog signals within two adjacent timing windows
satisfying the performance requirements of the system.
