摘要: 为了确保植入式眼压传感器在体内长期保持稳定的工作状态, 同时能较为精准地反映人体眼压变化, 设计了一种应用于青光眼治疗的植入式眼压检测传感器的10 bit, 20 kS/s低功耗逐次逼近型数字模拟转换器(SAR ADC).该电路内置的DAC使用全电容阵列设计, 利用对称电容阵列结构提高缩放电容的匹配精度; 比较器采用三级预放大器加一级动态锁存器结构, 并引入了失调校准功能.电路采用SMIC 0.18 μm 1P6M工艺进行设计, 后仿真结果表明, 在20 kS/s的采样速率下, 有效位数可达9.4 bit, 平均功耗仅为44.7 μW.Abstract: In order to ensure the long-term stable working state and detection resolution of implantable intraocular pressure sensor, a 10 bit, 20 KS/s low power successive approximation analog to digital converter (SAR ADC) for implantable intraocular pressure detection sensor application is proposed in this paper. The DAC adopts a full capacitance array design. The symmetrical capacitor array structure improves the matching accuracy of the scaling capacitor; Comparator with three-stage pre-amplifier and dynamic latch structure ensures the offset calibration function. The circuit is implemented with SMIC 0.18 μm CMOS technology and the post-simulation results show that the effective number of bits (ENOB) can reach 9.4 bit at 20 KS/s sampling rate, and the average power consumption is only 44.7 μW.
