Converter circuit, corresponding device and offset compensation method
Abstract:
A converter circuit includes an analog-to-digital signal conversion path. An input port receives an analog input signal having an offset, and an output port delivers a digital output signal quantized over M levels. The digital output signal is sensed by a digital-to-analog feedback path, which includes a digital-to-analog converter applying to the input port an analog feedback signal produced as a function of an M-bit digital word under control of a two-state signal having alternating first and second states. M-bit digital word generation circuitry coupled to the digital-to-analog converter and sensitive to the two-state signal produces, alternately, during the first states, a first M-bit digital word, which is a function of the digital output signal quantized over M levels, and, during the second states, a second M-bit digital word, which is a function a correction value of the offset in the analog input signal.
