Ridgetop Groups 10-bit, 4 MSPS ADC core utilizes a pipeline architecture in the TSMC 0.25 im process. The ADC converter design is a 10-bit 4 MSPS.
The cell incorporates a 10-bit pipeline analog-to-digital converter with up to five sample-hold blocks. Four sample-hold blocks are used in parallel to sample input voltage and current. The fifth sample-hold block is used with the input multiplexer to provide up to eight auxiliary inputs. The cell also includes a current-to-voltage converter that converts current input signals to voltages.
