Dithering capacitors

Dithering is especially important when you''re working with lower bit depths, like 16-bit audio. Without dithering, 16-bit recordings can sound harsh and brittle, with audible distortion and noise shaping artifacts. But with proper dithering, even 16-bit recordings can sound surprisingly good. In fact, many classic albums from the 1980s and ...

What is dithering in a capacitive DAC?

With dithering, weights of most significant bit capacitors can be measured accurately, which relaxes matching requirement in capacitive DAC. In addition, the bypass window technique is used to detect whether the output voltage of the DAC is within a predefined small window, which determines whether to inject the dithering signal.

Can a dither-based background calibration correct capacitor mismatch and gain error?

In this Letter, a dither-based background calibration with the DWA logic is proposed to correct capacitor mismatch and gain error in a pipeline-NS-SAR ADC. There is no detection of injecting the dithering signal in the calibration, leading to little analogue overhead and simple logic.

What is dithering in ADC?

As Fig. 4 shows, dithering is the act of injecting a known but random amount of noise into the input of the ADC. Dither needs to be subtracted from the converter result, thereby avoiding dither leakage .

What is dithering in Sar?

Dither is added to randomize the residue. The proposed calibration technique uses the capacitor array (C P d 0 − C P d 5 and C N d 0 - C N d 5) to inject dither and form different virtual thresholds during the normal SAR conversion. As Fig. 4 shows, dithering is the act of injecting a known but random amount of noise into the input of the ADC.
