The Design of a Radiation Hardened 16-bit 80-MSPS A/D Converter
In order to meet the demands of areo-space electronic system for high speed high precision ADC, a radiation hardened 16-bit 80 MSPS ADC was designed. The core of 16 bit ADC was implemented with “3+4+3+3+3+3+3” pipelined structure, and the front dedicated buffer was used to reduce the kickback and improved the whole linearity of ADC. The radiation hardened technologies, such as edgeless MOS device and N+/P+ rings, were also exploited. The ADC was designed with standard 018 μm CMOS process. With the supply voltage of 33 V and 18 V, the clock frequency of 80 MHz and input frequency of 361 MHz, the power dissipation is less than 11 W, SNR is larger than 738 dB, and SFDR is larger than 88 dBFS, respectively. The SNR degrades less than 03 dB and SFDR degrades less than 1 dB after total ionizing dose irradiation of 150 krad(Si).The current increases less than 4 mA under Bi heavy ion irradiation.
