High-Linearity Flash Analog to Digital Converter

An analog-to-digital converter circuit comprises code-shuffling circuitry, a plurality of digital-to-analog converter circuits, a plurality of difference circuits, and a plurality of latch circuits. The code-shuffling circuitry is operable to shuffle a plurality of digital codes among a plurality of its outputs. The plurality of digital-to-analog converter circuits are operable to convert a digital code on the respective one of the outputs to a corresponding one of a plurality of analog reference voltages. The plurality of difference circuits is operable to generate a respective one of a plurality of difference signals corresponding to a difference between an input voltage and a respective one of the plurality of reference voltages. The plurality of latch circuits is operable to latch a respective one of the plurality of difference signals to a corresponding one of a plurality of digital values.
