The Time-Interleaved ADC(TIADC) is an effective method for implement ultra high-speed data acquisition. However, the errors of channel mismatch are seriously degrade the signal-to-noise ratio of the system, such as Time-skew error, Gain error and Offset error. This paper have done some researches and analysis, and given the modeling of the three channels mismatch. What's more, it also given a detailed analysis of error and the method of measure it, derived the formula of signal to noise and distortion ratio(SINAD) and spurious free dynamic range(SFDR). All of them provide a reference for the tolerance range of TIADC channel mismatch error. Meanwhile, the result of this paper has provided a theoretical basis for eliminating TIADC channel mismatch error.
