Abstract
This paper presents an 11-bit 22-MS/s 0.6-mW successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) using SMIC 65-nm low leakage (LL) CMOS technology with a 1.2 V supply voltage. To reduce the total capacitance and core area the split capacitor architecture is adopted. But in high resolution ADCs the parasitic capacitance in the LSB-side would decrease the linearity of the ADC and it is hard to calibrate. This paper proposes a parasitic capacitance compensation technique to cancel the effect with no calibration circuits. Moreover, dynamic circuits are used to minimize the switching power of the digital logic and also can reduce the latency time. The prototype chip realized an 11-bit SAR ADC fabricated in SMIC 65-nm CMOS technology with a core area of 300 × 200 μm2. It shows a sampling rate of 22 MS/s and low power dissipation of 0.6 mW at a 1.2 V supply voltage. At low input frequency the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) is 59.3 dB and the spurious-free dynamic range is 72.2 dB. The peak figure-of-merit is 36.4 fJ/conversion-step.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
