Dynamic calibration of feedback DAC non-linearity for a 4 th order CT sigma delta for digital hearing aids

TL;DR: This scheme was implemented in a 0.25um CMOS process with a supply voltage of 1.2V, and the 4th order CT-ΣΔ was able to achieve 68dB measured SNR, while the 2nd order harmonic was reduced by about 20dB suppressing it to the thermal noise floor.

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.
