Mismatch-Immune Successive-Approximation Techniques for Nanometer CMOS ADCs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method to improve the quality of the data collected from the data collection of the users of the Internet and use it to improve their own data collection.

A mixed-signal model development and verification methodology with emphasis on a sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter

TL;DR: This research develops a methodology for comprehensive design and verification of a complex mixedsignal system using V HDL-AMS, exploiting the advantages of modular design flow typical to VHDL, which helped in Top-Down design and Bottom-Up verification.

System Analysis and Implementation of Delta-Sigma Modulator Topologies with Low Gain Amplifiers in 90nm CMOS

Bilal Shahzad
TL;DR: This thesis presents a type of delta sigma modulator which focuses on using of low gain operational amplifier and hence to operate at low voltage technologies and be more power efficient.

Quiet sigma delta quantization, and global convergence for a class of asymmetric piecewise affine maps

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a family of second-order sigma delta quantization schemes for analog-to-digital conversion which are ''quiet'' : quantization output is guaranteed to fall to zero at the onset of vanishing input.

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.
