Synthesis of Σ-Δ modulators with elliptic noise-shaping functions

TL;DR: In this article, a noise-shaping function which spectrally shapes the modulation error is chosen to be an elliptic filter, which satisfies the modulator's stability requirement.

Continuous-Time Delta-Sigma Modulators

TL;DR: DSM ADCs trade off speed for accuracy by using oversampling and noise shaping techniques, and are applied for higher-bandwidth and lower-accuracy A/D conversions.

Tunable mismatch shaping for bandpass Delta-Sigma data converters

Waqas Akram
TL;DR: Akram et al. as mentioned in this paper explored a series of techniques that allow the suppression band of the mismatch noise shaping function to have an adjustable center frequency, and evaluated the proposed techniques according to mismatch shaping performance, latency and hardware complexity.

A design procedure for finding optimal third order delta-sigma modulator loopfilters

TL;DR: The results presented are made for third order modulators and give the performance impact on them when varying both poles and zeroes of the transfer function.

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.
