Methodology for Mismatch Reduction in Time-Interleaved ADCs

This paper presents a methodology to minimize mismatch errors in time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters (ADC) by means of averaging multiple channels. A simple algorithm improving both spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) and signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (SINAD) is demonstrated. The presented technique provides robustness against inaccurately identified mismatch errors and does not require computationally expensive post-processing of the signal
