Digitally-Based Calibration Techniques for RF \Upsigma \Updelta Modulators

TL;DR: A calibration technique for Noise Transfer Function (NTF) optimization of Continuous-Time Sigma Delta (CT \( \Upsigma \Updelta \)) modulators is presented and uses a simple test signature to measure both in-band and out-of-band loop behavior.

VCO based Nyquist-rate ADC with F VCO of F s /2

TL;DR: This work provides an intuitive explanation of input modulated parallel ADCs and proposes a 32-channel VCO based ADC operating at a sampling rate, Fs, of 200 MHz and achieving an SNR of 65-dB, with the VCOs in each channel oscillating at a meagre frequency.

Fully Digital Low-Power Implementation of an Audio Front-End for Portable Applications

TL;DR: This work presents a fully digital implementation of an audio front-end for portable applications developed in a low-power perspective that acquires audio samples through a four digital Pulse Digital Modulation microphones array and implements two-channel beamformers to perform speech enhancement.

Stability analysis and system design of sigma-delta modulators

TL;DR: A system design with new empirical stability criteria for sigma-delta modulators is proposed, and several stability criteria of different targets (e.g., architectures, oversampling ratios, and multi-bit) are found.

A Single-Bit 2nd-Order CIFF Delta-Sigma Modulator for Precision Measurement of Battery Current

TL;DR: A single-bit 2nd-order delta-sigma modulator with the architecture of cascaded-of-integrator feedforward (CIFF) is proposed for precision measurement of current flowing through a secondary cell battery in a battery management system (BMS).

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.
