哈尔滨工业大学工程硕士学位论文 Abstract With the rapid development of integrated circuit technology, ambient light sensor is enjoying a much more market need because of its ability to sense the ambient light and to convert optical signals into electrical signals. It is widely used in cellphones, digital cameras, pads and many other high-integration, low power consumption products. In this paper an ambient light sensor and converter chip is presented which uses a standard CMOS process of SMIC0.18μm. Firstly the photodiode is simulated on the physical layer. Then according to the characteristics of the way how chips work, a 16-bit dual slope ADC is selected and designed which is the core of the chip. The structure of the photodiode is PN + , and the simulation result shows that within the visible wavelength range the peak current of a single photodiode is 0.12μA. The analog part of the dual slope ADC includes an integrator, switching circuits, comparators, bandgap reference and current bias circuits. The digital part includes a clock pulse counter and a logic control unit. Through negative and positive integration of analog inputs, the chip converts analog inputs to digital outputs which are proportional to the amount of time. Then the chip is simulated in the mixed-signal environment and an ideal 16-bit digital to analog converter is utilized as the output detection. The detecting result shows that the error of the output is less than 1LSB which verifies the correct function of the whole chip. Furthermore, some issues in layout is introduced, and electrostatic discharge and protective devices of the chip in traditional structure are simulated and verified .the layout of the chip is designed. The analog parts are drawn in strict accordance with the related process of landscape design rules and with the help of synthesis tools the logic synthesis and automatic placement and routing of the digital parts are completed. The whole chip design is completed after putting the analog and di
