Analog to digital converter stage

A stage, suitable for use in an analog to digital converter or a digital to analog converter, can have a plurality of slices that can be operated together to form a composite output. The stage can have reduced thermal noise, while each slice on its own has sufficiently small capacitance to respond quickly to changes in digital codes applied to the slice. This feature allows a fast conversion to be achieved without loss of noise performance.

Low power duty-cycled reference

A duty cycled voltage reference circuit is turned on and off synchronously with the operation of a second, reference-consuming, duty-cycled circuit to which it supplies a reference. When the reference consuming circuit no longer has need of the reference, the voltage reference circuit itself is then also powered down. The reference circuit is then powered back up for the next duty cycle sufficiently in advance of the reference consuming circuit such that any auto-zeroing and noise filtering operations required by the reference circuit are complete and a stable reference voltage is output at least simultaneously with, or slightly before, the reference consuming circuit begins to make use of the voltage reference signal. In this manner, synchronous duty-cycled operation of the voltage reference circuit with the reference-consuming circuit is obtained, with the consequence that power consumption by the reference circuit is reduced.
