Mismatch-error noise-shaping based digital multiphase modulator

TL;DR: The proposedMultiphase modulator is able to generate the control pulses for each phase using a single, low-frequency clock, and to achieve automatic current-sharing among the phases, and enables the designer to achieve the full dynamic capabilities of the multiphase converter.

Delta sigma (ΔΣ) based novel modulation technique replacing “analog” amplitude modulation (AM)

TL;DR: This brief presents a novel idea of replacing the purely analog technique of AM modulation with ΔΣ modulation, to transmit the pulse wave with same amplitude but varying width with respect to the amplitude of the input signal.

Subtractive dithering technique for delta-sigma modulator

TL;DR: A novel subtractive dithering technique used in delta-sigma modulators is presented which improves the spectral integrity of the modulators while minimizing the tradeoffs due to the use of dither.

High Dynamic Range adaptive ΔΣ-based Focal Plane Array architecture

TL;DR: The proposed architecture can extend the DR for about 20N log2 dB at the high end of Photo-diode current with an N bit Up-Down counter, and can compensate for the larger readout noise by employing Extended Counting at the low end.

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.
