Hi,
If you have experiance of analog design but don't have any know how of ADC, then u should follow the following approach which, in my opinion, is effective.
1. Study ADC basics in short:
Johns+ Martin OR Allen OR Baker : ANALOG design book.
2. Go thru ur specs given for the ADC to be designed:
3. Go thru some recent research papers whose specs closely matches with ur required specs:
U can find it in IEEEXplore: If u don't have acces u can request in this board. U always can find the title and abstracts FREE in google/scholar.google etc.
=> At this point u have a fair understanding about what u are going to do. And out of several architectures availble u can choose only 1-3 architectures suitable for u.
4. Go thru details of ADC architectures and their merits / demerits towards meeting different specs:
Go through in details of the above selected architectures in details with all necessary points.
RAZAVI OR Plassche : Books on Data Converter
=> these will give u very much insight
5. Final selection of architectures:
Now u can choose final architectures for ur specs. But be sure about it. Some annotation is requires here by going thru papers and books back and forth and decide.
6. Start designing:
In this phase the paperd and the books u followed will help u. U also can go thru the following HAND BOOK of DATA CONVERSION which will help u throughout ur study and work. But this one is big. Thus don't get lost first. Although simple and easy going; it takes a lot of interest and time.
