Peaking reduced STF design for CT ΣΔ modulators with selective pole compensation

TL;DR: This paper presents a method to design continuous-time ΣΔ modulator with reduced peaking of the signal transfer function (STF) and reduces the number of additional circuit elements needed for a flat STF frequency response.

∑-Δ based force-feedback capacitive micro-machined sensors: Extending the input signal range

TL;DR: A solution is proposed that allows extending the input signal range of ∑-Δ based capacitive sensors beyond the limit imposed by single-bit operation, and is applied to the design of a MEMS based accelerometer.

A Low Distortion 3rd-Order Continuous-Time Delta-Sigma Modulator for a Worldwide Digital TV-Receiver

A Complex ΔΣ Modulator with an Improved STF

TL;DR: The presence of interferers puts a severe demand on the linearity requirements of the analog circuitry of a ΔΣ ADC and, in such applications, instead of unity signal-transfer functions (STF), it may be more desirable to have an STF with improved out-of-band attenuation.

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.
