Design considerations for band-pass sigma delta modulators
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transition from the system level to the transistor level design of sigma delta modulator involves degradation in performance due to circuit imperfections, the extent of which depends on the architecture. A systematic understanding of the sensitivity is essential to accomplish a robust design. Smart behavioral modeling allows us to compare architectures and to derive minimum specifications for opamp and system design.

Time-Mode Signal Quantization for Use in Sigma-Delta Modulators
The rapid scaling in modern CMOS technology has motivated the researchers to design new analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architectures that can properly work in lower supply voltage. An exchanging the data quantization procedure from the amplitude to the time domain, can be a promising alternative well adapt with the technology scaling. This paper is going to review the recent development in t...
متن کاملModeling Band-pass Sigma-delta Modulators in Simulink
In this paper we present a complete set of behavioral SIMULINK models for the simulation of switched-capacitor band-pass sigma-delta (BP ΣΔ ) modulators. The models include most of the non-idealities which affect the performance of these circuits, such as sampling jitter, kT/C noise and operational amplifier parameters (noise, finite gain, finite bandwidth, slew-rate and saturation voltages). W...
متن کاملBehavioral modeling of continuous time ∆Σ modulators
A mixed-signal continuous time behavioral model of a continuous time delta-sigma modulator (CT ∆Σ) is presented. CT ∆Σ modulators, by their nature, are mixed-signal systems. That fact creates a discontinuity in the traditional IC design flow which assumes that “discrete” and “continuous” time domain designs require separate design tools. In this work, we present a top level behavioral CT ∆Σ mod...
