Dynamic voltage reference for delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with temperature trim calibration
A calibratable switched-capacitor voltage reference and an associated calibration method are described. The voltage reference includes dynamic diode elements providing diode voltages, input capacitor(s) for sampling input voltages, base-emitter capacitor(s) for sampling one diode voltage with respect to a ground, dynamically trimmable capacitor(s) for sampling the one diode voltage with respect to another diode voltage, and an operational amplifier coupled to the capacitors for providing reference voltage(s) based on the sampled input and diode voltages and on trims of the trimmable capacitor(s). The voltage reference can be configured as a first integrator of a modulator stage of a delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter.
