The AD9215 architecture consists of a front-end SHA followed by a pipelined switched capacitor ADC. Each stage provides sufficient overlap to correct for flash errors in the preceding stages. The quantized outputs from each stage are combined into a final 10-bit result in the digital correction logic. The pipe-lined architecture permits the first stage to operate on a new input sample, while the remaining stages operate on preceding samples. Sampling occurs on the rising edge of the clock.
