  • A dual-path 2-0 MASH ADC with dual digital error correction

    Creator:
    Zhang, Zhenyong
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a dual-path 2-0 MASH (Multi-stAge-noise -SHaping) ADC with two verified digital corrections of DAC mismatch error and quantization noise leakage. By using these two techniques, the requirements for the analog circuits are greatly relaxed. The dual-path structure generates two outputs, one only composed of conversion errors, the...

  • Design of low OSR, high precision analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Rajaee, Omid
    Abstract:
    Advances in electronic systems have lead to the demand for high resolution, high bandwidth Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs). Oversampled ADCs are well- known for high accuracy applications since they benefit from noise shaping and they usually do not need highly accurate components. However, as a consequence of oversampling, they have limited...

  • Time-based noise-shaping techniques for time-to-digital and analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Young, Brian LeRoy
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, time-based signal processing techniques and their applications in oversampling and noise-shaping data converters are examined. These techniques demonstrate the ability to shift the burden of high performance analog circuits from the compressed voltage-domain to the augmented time-domain. First, the potential of high order noise-shaping and phase-domain feedback...

  • Efficient use of time information in analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Hu, Yue
    Abstract:
    Time-domain data conversion has recently drawn increased research attention for its highly digital nature in favor of process technology scaling. Also, as the time information being carried by binary voltage, time-domain operation is much less sensitive to voltage noise compared to conventional voltage domain operation. However, for analog-to-digital converter (ADC)...

  • High efficiency wideband low-power delta-sigma modulators

    Creator:
    Lee, Sang Hyeon
    Abstract:
    Delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters traditionally have been used for low speed, high resolution applications such as measurements, sensors, voice and audio systems. Through continued device scaling in CMOS technology and architectural and circuit level design innovations, they have even become popular for wideband, high dynamic range applications such as wired and...

  • Novel structures for high-speed delta-sigma data converters

    Creator:
    Chae, Jeong Seok
    Abstract:
    As CMOS processes keep scaling down devices, the maximum operating frequencies of CMOS devices increase, and hence circuits can process very wide band signals. Moreover, the small physical dimensions of transistors allow the placing of many more blocks into a single chip, including highly accurate analog blocks and complicated digital...

  • Architectural compensation techniques for analog inaccuracies in delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters, Architectural compensation techniques for analog inaccuracies in ΔΣanalog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Maghari, Nima
    Abstract:
    Delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are suitable for many applications due to several advantages such as relaxed anti-aliasing filter, high signal-to noise and distortion ratio (SNDR) and most important of all, reduced sensitivity to analog imperfections.This thesis introduces several structures to overcome loop imperfections and stability issues in delta-sigma modulators. First,...
