Design Issues of the Parallel Delta - Sigma A / DConverterEric
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes an analog-to-digital converter which combines multiple delta-sigma modulators in parallel so that time oversampling may be reduced or even eliminated. By doubling the number of L th-order delta-sigma modulators, the resolution of this architecture is increased by approximately L bits. Thus, the resolution obtained by combining M delta-sigma modulators in parallel with no oversampling is similar to operating the same modulator with an oversampling rate of M. A parallel delta-sigma A/D converter implementation composed of 2, 4, and 8 second-order delta-sigma modulators is described that does not require over-sampling. Using this prototype, the design issues of the parallel delta-sigma A/D converter are explored and the theoretical performance with no oversampling and with low oversampling is veriied. This architecture shows promise for obtaining high speed and resolution conversion since it retains much of the insensitivity to non-ideal circuit behavior characteristic of the individual delta-sigma modulators.

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 کاملQuadrature delta sigma modular design with adjustable bandwidth and center frequency
In this paper, a flexible Continuous time (CT) feedforward (FF) quadrature delta sigma modulator (QDSM) with variable bandwidth (BW) is proposed. The modulator BW and center frequency (fc) are variable which can be adjusted with two separate parameters. The modulator signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) will be optimized by these parameters at every center frequency and bandwidth. The modulator BW is ch...
متن کاملGeneralized sigma-derivation on Banach algebras
Let $mathcal{A}$ be a Banach algebra and $mathcal{M}$ be a Banach $mathcal{A}$-bimodule. We say that a linear mapping $delta:mathcal{A} rightarrow mathcal{M}$ is a generalized $sigma$-derivation whenever there exists a $sigma$-derivation $d:mathcal{A} rightarrow mathcal{M}$ such that $delta(ab) = delta(a)sigma(b) + sigma(a)d(b)$, for all $a,b in mathcal{A}$. Giving some facts concerning general...
متن کاملCharacterization of $delta$-double derivations on rings and algebras
The main purpose of this article is to offer some characterizations of $delta$-double derivations on rings and algebras. To reach this goal, we prove the following theorem:Let $n > 1$ be an integer and let $mathcal{R}$ be an $n!$-torsion free ring with the identity element $1$. Suppose that there exist two additive mappings $d,delta:Rto R$ such that $$d(x^n) =Sigma^n_{j=1} x^{n-j}d(x)x^{j-1}+Si...
