I'm a PhD student and I'm dealing with the design of an ADC pipeline 10 bit, 50 Msps:
four 2.5bit stage and last 2 bit Flash.
This is the 2.5bit stage, The OTA is a pseudodifferential ring Amp.:
In order to take in to account the effect of the parasitic capacitances and inductances of the bonding wire on the power supply, I implemented a simple model showed below:
vdd and gnd power the ADC circuit.
Inside the box there is the following circuit:
where vss_ext is the external ground, and vss is the internal ground of the circuit.
It is a common model that I observe in many paper.
This is the residium of the first stage with "ideal" power supply without the PAD effect.
When I include the bonding wire circuit (that I showed up) the residium start to oscillate:
This happened for all the stages.
The problem is the inductances on the power supply:
Indeed, if I reduce the nominal value, the oscillation decrease.
The only way I've found to reduce oscillations is to put multiple bonding wires in parallel, implementing the following model:
But I dont know if it is feasible this solution.
Do you have any other ideas regarding this problem?
Really Sorry if I wasn't very clear in describing the problem, if necessary I'm available to answer your questions.
