A Class-D Amplifier With Pulse Code Modulated (PCM) Digital Input for Digital Hearing Aid

TL;DR: A class-D amplifier with pulse code modulated (PCM) digital input is developed for a low-power digital hearing aid and the feedback path from the power switch output is realized with a continuous-time (CT) integrator for effective noise suppression.

A 81-dB Dynamic Range 16-MHz Bandwidth $\Delta\Sigma$ Modulator Using Background Calibration

TL;DR: A fourth-order discrete-time delta-sigma modulator was fabricated using a 65-nm CMOS technology and employs the integrator leakage calibration to correct the poles of the integrators and the noise leakage calibrated to minimize the leaking quantization noise from the first loop.

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.
