The invention provides an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC comprises a plurality of stages connected in series, a gain error correction module, and a look-ahead module. Each of the stages derives a stage output value from a stage input signal and generates a stage output si
The invention provides a method for gain error estimation in an analog-to-digital converter. In one embodiment, the analog-to-digital converter comprises a plurality of stages. A series of correction numbers applied to a target stage selected from the stages are correlated with a ser
The present invention provides a signal amplifying apparatus, for converting a first input signal into a first output signal. The signal amplifying apparatus includes an input stage circuit for receiving the first input signal; a cascoded circuit coupled to the input stage circuit, i
