Hybrid continuous-discrete-time multi-bit delta-sigma A/D converters with auto-ranging algorithm

TL;DR: An auto-ranging algorithm is developed in this thesis to overcome the limitation of a large-size quantizer under low-voltage supply and a hybrid continuous-discrete-time approach is used to take advantage of the accuracy of switched-capacitor circuits and the low power consumption of continuous-time implementation.

Wide-band frequency synthesis using hardware-efficient band-pass single-bit multi-step look-ahead sigma-delta modulators

TL;DR: The hardware requirements of MSLASDMs are demonstrated and an all-digital frequency synthesizer architecture based on band-pass MSLA SDMs is proposed, which can significantly reduce the required hardware complexity, while retaining the advantages of look-ahead SDMs.

A Dynamic Source-Follower Integrator and Its Application to ΔΣ Modulators

TL;DR: A switched-capacitor integrator based on dynamic source follower amplifiers and its successful operation has been confirmed by transistor-level circuit simulation and the power dissipation can be reduced to approximately one-eighth that of conventional integrators.

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.
