latch comparator problem
Jun 17th, 2009, 4:13pm
 
i am trying to simulate a fully differential dynamic comparator in 0.13um process, vdd=1.2v,
when the threshold is zero i have only one error when the ramp is falling below the zero( threshold)
attached is my simulation ; the ramp is the positive input,the purple line is the clock and the blue line is the positive output
the clock switching the pmos transistors has a delay of 200ps from the external clocks of the system

i also want to know if i want to adjust a threshold , what to do ?
i know we add 2 transistors with vthreshold=(Wref/Win)*Vref but I've read thats a theoratical rule...does anyone know whats the practical??

Hi,

M15 and M16 are not symmetry in the schematic. Probably something is wrong.

Do you add M15, M16 to cancel the miller effect ?

No to cancel the kick back noise

how can you say that it is for kick back noise cancellation?

Thanks,
