Quantization Noise Conditioning Techniques for Digital Delta-Sigma Modulators
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an overview of outstanding theoretical problems in delta-sigma modulator based electronic digital-to-analog circuits and outlines quantization noise conditioning techniques that are being employed to address these problems. Both the problems and the conditioning techniques are described in the context of a special class of electronic circuits called frequency synthesizers.

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 کاملAdaptive Sigma–Delta Modulation With One-Bit Quantization
A method for improving the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of sigma–delta modulators with one-bit quantization is presented. The two-level feedback signal of a standard sigma–delta modulator is replaced by a multilevel signal, which is a superposition of two parts. One part ( ) represents a rough estimate of the instantaneous amplitude of the input signal (prediction signal), and the other ( ) is t...

Design techniques for sigma-delta modulators from communications are applied and adapted to improve the spectral characteristics of high frequency power electronic applications. A high frequency power electronic circuit can be regarded as a quantizer in an interpolative Σ∆ modulator. We review one dimensional sigma-delta modulators and then generalize to the hexagonal sigma-delta modulators tha...
متن کاملEfficient Linearisation of Sigma-Delta Modulators using Single-Bit Dither
Sigma-delta modulation, where a single-bit quantiser is embedded within a negative feedback loop (Fig. 1), is now a commonly-used technique for implementing high-resolution analogue-to-digital and digital-toanalogue converters (DACs), principally because of a favourable insensitivity to component tolerancing [1]. Single-bit quantisation generates relatively high levels of quantisation noise, he...
