A Linearized Model for the Design of Fractional- $N$ Digital PLLs Based on Dual-Mode Ring Oscillator FDCs

TL;DR: A linearized model is derived of the new architecture and key equations which are necessary for the design of PLLs based on the architecture, well-suited to implementation in highly-scaled CMOS technology.

A Low-Power Continuous-Time Delta-Sigma Modulator Using a Resonant Single Op-Amp Third-Order Loop Filter

TL;DR: A third-order loop filter (LF) using a single op-amp resonator is presented for continuous-time delta-sigma modulators and improves both the power and area efficiencies by reducing the number of active components and simplifying the modulator topology.

A 250-MHz Pipelined ADC-Based $f_{S}/4$ Noise-Shaping Bandpass ADC

TL;DR: A new-analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architecture is realized by feeding back the delayed quantization noise inherently produced by a pipelined ADC by means of a new bandpass.

A higher order topology for interpolative modulators for oversampling A/D converters

TL;DR: Higher order modulators are shown not only to greatly reduce oversampling requirements for high-resolution conversion applications, but also to randomize the quantization noise, avoiding the need for dithering.

Decimation for Sigma Delta Modulation

TL;DR: It is shown that digital filters comprising cascades of integrate-and-dump functions can match the structure of the noise from sigma delta modulation to provide decimation with negligible loss of signal-to-noise ratio.

An analysis of nonlinear behavior in delta - sigma modulators

TL;DR: This paper introduces a new method of analysis for deltasigma modulators based on modeling the nonlinear quantizer with a linearized gain, obtained by minimizing a mean-square-error criterion, followed by an additive noise source representing distortion components.

The Structure of Quantization Noise from Sigma-Delta Modulation

TL;DR: Simple algebraic expressions for this modulation noise and its spectrum in terms of the input amplitude are derived and can be useful for designing oversampled analog to digital converters that use sigma-delta modulation for the primary conversion.

A fourth-order bandpass sigma-delta modulator

TL;DR: The modulator of a bandpass analog/digital (A/D) converter, with 63 dB signal/noise for broadcast AM bandwidth signals centered at 455 kHz, has been implemented by modifying a commercial digital-audio sigma-delta ( Sigma Delta ) converter.
