Specific embodiment
The present invention adopts the technical scheme that:
The formula that above formula is changed for block matrix, wherein IhvIt is the pixel value of correspondence position, ChvIt is corresponding core coefficient.Can
To find out, each TijAll operated and obtained with accumulation operations by h × v multiplication, wherein h and v represents the row of image respectively
Number and columns.Traditional focal plane block matrix conversion method typically completes pixel value and corresponding first with switched-capacitor circuit
The multiplication operation of core coefficient, next completes required accumulation operations twice using simulation accumulator.Because analog circuit is intrinsic
Non-linear, completing so complicated computing can have a huge impact to result.
By observing above-mentioned operational formula the characteristic with reference to conventional recycle pattern number converter (ADC), inventor finds
Can be by accumulation operations being dissolved in ADC and becoming the intrinsic part of its work process to the improvement of ADC structure.
The structure chart of conventional recycle type ADC and fundamental diagram, referring to Fig. 1, are carried out to input signal in a cycle
Difference is fed back and carries out the quantization work of subsequent cycle after extract a quantized result by comparator by sampling
Make.Due to value to be quantified of each cycle all than the previous cycle value few 1 in binary weights, therefore before circulation starts also
Difference is carried out take advantage of 2 process to keep the amplitude range of input value.In order to incorporate accumulation function in conventional recycle type ADC,
The present invention proposes a kind of new A DC structure, and structured flowchart and schematic diagram are referring to Fig. 2.Premise using this structure is input
Signal must be discrete it is assumed that input signal expression formula is:
P [k]=Ic [k] (6)
P [k] is one of former formula Tij,h.With unlike conventional recycle type ADC, mould to be quantified of each cycle
Analog quantity is obtained from the P [k] newly inputting was added with the residual value in a upper cycle, therefore the peak value meeting of comparator input voltage
Double, needing to maintain peak value using the circuit structure in Fig. 2 dotted line frame is normal value.This makes this arithmetic ADC each week
Phase can obtain the digital code of 2 bits, is obtained by two comparators respectively, as shown in Figure 2.When all of input quantity all conveys
After in ADC, ADC will be operated the digital code until creating N-bit according to the operation principle of conventional recycle type ADC.
Concrete operating principle is following it is assumed that this ADC quantified precision is N-bit, then the period 1 terminates rear residual value and is:
w2[1]=2 (P [1]-d1[1])-d2[1] (7)
In the remaining N-1 cycle, residual value is:
w2[k]=2 (P [k]+w2[k-1]-d1[k])-d2[k], k=2,3..., N (8)
Can obtain after the residual value in this N number of cycle is carried out adding up according to its binary weights:
Above formula is entered and can obtain after line translation:
To Tij,hJust the core coefficient after a conversion can be obtained, it can be seen that will count from formula (10) after carrying out adding up
Calculate Tij,hAlso the 2 bit number character codes extracting to be taken advantage of two with the operation being added, these operation need in the digital domain profit
Completed with adder, as shown in figure 3, d1 and d2 will be transformed into numeric field from analog domain according to weight by this adder first carrying out
Storage, then carry out add operation.
So far, complete the required accumulation operations of block matrix conversion during ADC quantization, and this structure is only than tradition
The many analog comparaters of circular type ADC, but improve treatment effeciency and conversion accuracy.
For the more detailed operation principle illustrating this arithmetic type ADC, the quantizing process of concrete numerical value is presented below.
Hypothesis quantified precision is 8 bits, and comparator peak value is 3.3V, and reference voltage is 1.65V, and the discrete variable of input is
2V and 1V.Want to obtain be two input quantities add up by its binary weights and, then preferably result is 2V × 2-1+1V
× 2-2=1.25V.
When completing above-mentioned cumulative process with this ADC, first, when the period 1 arrives, 2V is transported in ADC, obtains 2 ratios
Special digital code is:1,0, residual volume is 0.7V.After second round arrives, residual volume 0.7V and second input variable 1V are added
Input quantity 1.7V obtaining afterwards can be transported in ADC, and 2 bit number character codes of generation are:1,0, residual volume is 0.1V.So far,
The sampling of all input signals completes, and next the residual volume of 0.1V is carried out with the operation principle according to conventional recycle type ADC
Quantify until obtaining the digital code of 82 bits.Therefore 8 groups digital codes are respectively:1,0;1,0;0,0;0,0;0,0;0,0;0,1;
0,1.Therefore the value after quantization can be calculated according to formula (6) and be converted into decimal scale and be about 1.255, and desired result is similar.
Therefore this arithmetic type ADC can successfully accumulation operations be fused in the quantizing process of ADC.
