Reduced Complexity MASH Delta-Sigma Modulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
A reduced complexity digital multi-stage noise shaping (MASH) delta–sigma modulator for fractional-N frequency synthesizer applications is proposed. A long word is used for the first modulator in a MASH structure; the sequence length is maximized by setting the least significant bit of the input to “1;” shorter words are used in subsequent stages. Experimental results confirm simulations.

Design Methodology for a Maximum Sequence Length MASH Digital Delta-Sigma Modulator
The paper proposes a novel structure for a MASH digital delta-sigma modulator (DDSM) in order to achieve a long sequence length. The expression for the sequence length is derived. The condition to produce the maximum sequence length is also stated. It is proved that the modulator output only depends on the structure of the first-order error feedback modulator (EFM1) which is the first stage of ...
متن کاملMASH Digital Delta–Sigma Modulator with Multi-Moduli
This chapter proposes a novel design methodology for a Multi-stAge noise SHaping (MASH) digital delta–sigma modulator (DDSM) which employs multi-moduli. The structure is termed the MM-MASH. The adequacy and benefit of using such a structure is demonstrated. In particular, the sequence length is lengthened if the quantizer modulus of the first-order error feedback modulator (EFM1) of each stage ...
متن کاملReduced complexity, high performance digital delta-sigma modulator for fractional-N frequency synthesis
This paper presents the design consideration of high order digital AZ modulators used as modulus controller for fractional-N frequency synthesizer. A third-order MASH structure (MASH 1-2) is designed and implemented which allows for the input to operate over 75% of the input adder capacity. The number of the output levels is reduced to two bits. The circuit was verified through simulation, ASIC...
متن کاملMathematical Analysis of a Prime Modulus Quantizer MASH Digital Delta-Sigma Modulator
A MASH digital delta–sigma modulator (DDSM) is analyzed mathematically. It incorporates first-order error feedback modulators (EFM) which include prime modulus quantizers to guarantee a minimum sequence length . The purpose of this analysis is to calculate the exact sequence length of the aforementioned MASH DDSM. We show that the sequence length for an th-order member of this modulator family ...
متن کاملMixed-Order Sturdy MASH - Modulator
An enhanced version of Sturdy MASH (SMASH) [2] delta-sigma modulator is proposed. This structure takes advantage of the well-known stability of the MASH structure while greatly reducing its sensitivity to imperfect circuit blocks. Furthermore, no digital noise cancellation filters are needed. Hence there is no matching requirement for the analog and digital paths. With the proposed enhancement ...
