AN9504: A Brief Introduction to Sigma Delta Conversion
نویسنده
چکیده
The sigma delta conversion technique has been in existence for many years, but recent technological advances now make the devices practical and their use is becoming widespread. The converters have found homes in such applications as communications systems, consumer and professional audio, industrial weight scales, and precision measurement devices. The key feature of these converters is that they are the only low cost conversion method which provides both high dynamic range and flexibility in converting low bandwidth input signals. This application note is intended to give an engineer with little or no sigma delta background an overview of how a sigma delta converter works.

متن کاملPerformance Requirements of Bandpass Sigma-delta Converters in Ofdm Systems
This paper analyzes the effect of analog-todigital bandpass Sigma-Delta conversion on the performance of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. A brief description of both OFDM systems and the related simulation model is given. The nonlinear effects of quantization overload on overall OFDM performance are evaluated in terms of quantization noise power and bit error rate. It ...
متن کاملDecimation for Bandpass Sigma-Delta Analog-to-Digital Conversion
An efficient means for constructing a narrow bandpass filter for an analogto-digital converter based on a bandpass sigma-delta modulator is presented. It is shown that the filter can be made with very simple hardware, comparable to that required by an analog-to-digital converter using standard lowpass sigma-delta modulation. Introduction Bandpass sigma-delta modulation [1] is a variant of the m...
متن کاملTime-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 کاملAn Overview of Sigma-Delta Converters: How a 1-bit ADC achieves more than 16-bit resolution
This article briefly describes conventional A/D conversion, as well as its performance modeling. We then look at the technique of oversampling, which can be used to improve the resolution of classical A/D methods. We discuss how sigma-delta converters use the technique of noise shaping in addition to oversampling to allow high resolution conversion of relatively low bandwidth signals. Next, we ...
