Abstract

A low-voltage and low-power comparator suitable for use in a pipeline analog-to-digital converter is implemented in CMOS 0.8μm technology. The maximum clock frequency with DC inputs is 160 MHz. With a 10 MHz input sine wave at vi+, DC at vi-, and a clock frequency of 120 MHz, the measured rise-time, fall-time, delay-time, and power consumption are 1.28 ns, 1.37 ns, 1.60 ns and 1.47 mW, respectively. Optimization issue of the comparator is discussed.
