A resolution-independent successive approximation register (SAR) analog to digital converter (ADC) architecture based on a switched capacitor integrator is presented. Digital to analog converter (DAC) architecture uses charge sharing and integration principle for reference generation, using only six unit capacitorsfor a fully differential version. A 10-bit, 1.8-V and 0.9-MS/s SAR ADC is designed in 180-nm CMOS process. ADC architecture is area efficient when compared with SAR ADC with a binary weighted capacitor array DAC. The architecture is largely parasitic insensitive, also programmable resolution is possible with no hardwareoverhead.
