Abstract

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of analog or digital-analog hybrid integrated circuits, and relates to a high-speed SAR_ADC digital logic circuit, in particular to a high-speed digital logic circuit for SAR_ADC and a sampling adjustment method. The digital logic circuit includes a comparator, a logic control unit parallel to the comparator, and a capacitor array DAC. The comparator and the logic control unit are simultaneously triggered by a clock signal. The comparator outputs a valid comparison result Dp/Dn, the logic control unit outputs a corresponding rising edge signal, the rising edge signal is slightly later than Dp/Dn output by the comparator through setting a delay match, Dp/Dn is captured by the corresponding rising edge signal, thereby settling a capacitor array. The present disclosure eliminates the disadvantage of the improper settling of the capacitor array of the traditional parallel digital logic.
