“…Its 3 dB cut-off is about 6 GHz input frequency (at 16 GHz sampling rate). The FoM value of the converter is 7.8 pJ/conversion step, which represents the worlds second best FoM value for high-speed ADCs in silicon technology [8]. …”

Ultra wideband sensors are well suited to detect or image hidden objects. In order to approach the physical limits of ultra wideband detection and imaging, super resolution techniques have to be applied for processing the captured sensor data. These techniques are very sensitive to the quality of the measurement data, i. e. their bandwidth, their dynamic range and their time stability. Implementation issues of the sensor electronics implied by those parameters are considered and corresponding demands are deduced. In this article a sensor conception is presented which largely meets these requirements. It is based on a digital wideband correlator which promotes monolithic integration of the system components in a low cost RF-technology and provides superior jitter performance. Its working principle will be considered as well as the implementation of some fundamental circuits.

“…The bottleneck is the analog processing of the input signal i. e. the differential reference network, which limits the bandwidth of the input signal. To solve this issue a new parallel processing of the analog input was proposed [7] and implemented [8]. The 4 bit ADC (Fig.5a) was implemented in 190 GHz SiGe BiCMOS technology.…”

“…When the frequency of the signal v in increases the considerable signal distortions occur in such devices caused by the influence of the parasitic capacitor C 0 in the load circuit [5]. This capacitor is formed, for example, by the input capacitance of the comparator [6][7] or operational amplifier [8]. The reduction of these distortions is one of the problems of the data measuring systems.…”

The paper reviews the features of the advanced high-frequency correction circuit for the resistive voltage dividers (attenuators, AT) operating on the capacitive load. The effect of the constant cutoff frequency of considered AT is shown at changing transfer ratio in a wide range. This feature of the considered circuit is the main advantage over the classical AT implementation for the analog-to-digital converters, telecommunication line drivers and other.

“…In such ADCs on high frequencies the significant errors of transformation conditioned by the effect of the parasitic capacitances C 0i upon the substrate of active and passive components of the input analog section (AS) and also by the input capacitances of the comparators occur [3]. The use of SiGe technologies scarcely ever gives the advantage over bandwidth [3]. Further increase of the rate of response of ADC of this class is one of the problems of microelectronics, the solution of which will render possible to realize the processing of more quickly changing signals [4].…”

The circuit method of the frequency-response compensation of the input analog section (АS) of the high speed ADCs with the cascade connection of the reference resistors, based on the creation of special conditions for extending of its bandwidth from 200 МHz up to 4÷10 GHz is suggested. The analytical relations for the base block scheme of AS that render possible to calculate the elements of the frequency compensation depending upon the capacitance numerical values of the parasitic capacitors equivalent at the inputs of comparators of ADCs are obtained.
