An 85 dB SNDR third-order ΔΣ modulator for audio applications

TL;DR: A 1.8 V 1 mW single-loop third-order delta sigma modulator is presented for audio applications, which achieves 85.1 dB SNDR in 20 kHz signal bandwidth with a sampling frequency of 5.12 MHz.

How are bits played back from an audio CD

TL;DR: The essential tool for this is the digital-to-analog converter (DAC), which is taken for granted that the stream of 16-bit digital information it contains can easily be made available to their ears in the analog world in which the authors live.

A reconfigurable low-pass/high-pass DR ADC suited for a zero-IF/ low-IF receiver

TL;DR: The main degree of freedom is the choice of the noise shaping between low-pass and high-pass, which makes the analog-to- digital converter compliant for both the low-IF and the zero-IF receiver architectures.

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.
