Hi, Can someone tell me how to simulate a charge-redistribution converter? i am trying to use MIM capacitor models in the cap-array. How can i observe charge-redistribution in simulation? i am using Cadence spectre for simulations.
Thanks!

Hello Jerry
I appreciate your response.
What i would like to know is:
How do I do the basic simulations to study the working of a charge-redistribution converter. It is not to pump voltage but to just study how the A/D conversion takes place.
What I have is a comparator and a capacitor array (binary weighted).

So basically when you sample the input voltage(Vin) and go into hold mode, the top plate of the capacitors should have -Vin. Then I connect each bottom plate of the capacitor to Vref.
Now my question is what kind of signals can I use for simulations?

I hope this is clearer. Else please let me know and I will elaborate further.
Thanks.

I am trying to perform a circuit level implementation.
I am using DC input (Vin) as a starting point. In the hold mode, the voltage at the top-plate of the capacitors (which is connected to the input of the comparator) should be -Vin.  However, in my simulations the top-plate voltage in the hold mode is at zero. This is where I am kind of stuck and dont know as to why the voltage is at zero and not -Vin.
