A Least-Squares Filter Design Technique for the Compensation of Frequency Response Mismatch Errors in Time-Interleaved A/D Converters

This paper introduces a least-squares filter design technique for the compensation of frequency response mismatch errors in M-channel time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters. The overall compensation system is designed by determining M filter impulse responses analytically through M separate matrix inversions. The proposed technique offers an alternative to least-squares techniques that determine all filters simultaneously. Several design examples are included for illustration.
