Time interleaving structure for a multi-lane analog-to-digital converter (ADC)

A multi-lane analog to digital converter (ADC) samples an analog input according to multiple phases of a sampling clock. Ideally, the multiple phases of the sampling clock are non-overlapping. The multi-lane ADC includes one or more reset switches to remove any residual samples that can remain after...

Zusammenfassung:A multi-lane analog to digital converter (ADC) samples an analog input according to multiple phases of a sampling clock. Ideally, the multiple phases of the sampling clock are non-overlapping. The multi-lane ADC includes one or more reset switches to remove any residual samples that can remain after their conversion from an analog signal domain to a digital signal domain. As a result of this removal, the multiple phases of the sampling clock need not to ideally coincide with one other. Rather, some overlap between the multiple phases of the sampling clock can exist while having digital output samples still accurately represent the analog input.
