  • Design of a 14-bit continuous-time Delta-Sigma A/D modulator with 2.5MHz signal bandwidth

    Creator:
    Li, Zhimin
    Abstract:
    In recent years, there has been growing interest in both industry and academia to use continuous-time (CT) Δ-Σ A/D converters for wideband wireless and wireline communication applications. So far no reported CT Δ-Σ A/D modulator achieves 14-bit or higher dynamic range (DR) with more than 2MHz signal bandwidth (equivalently 4MS/s)....

  • Design of a 1.8-V 14-bit [delta] - [sigma] A/D converter with 8X oversampling and 4 MHz Nyquist output rate

    Creator:
    Jiang, Ruoxin
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, a new Δ∑ A/D converter is presented that is ideally suited for communication applications. It is based on a single-loop single-stage structure, which can realize a high maximum out-of-band quantization noise gain while maintaining stable operation and thus achieve 14-bit resolution at 8 times oversampling. A fifth-order...

  • A wideband low-power continuous-time delta-sigma modulator for next generation wireless applications

    Creator:
    Chen, Xuefeng
    Abstract:
    Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are widely used in wireless transceivers. Recently, continuous-time (CT) ΔΣ ADCs gain growing interest in wireless applications for their lower power consumption and wider input bandwidth as compared with the discrete-time (DT) counterparts. In this thesis, a wideband low-power CT ΔΣ modulator for next generation...

  • Design techniques for low power ADCs

    Creator:
    Yu, Wenhuan
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents an incremental analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with digital digital-to-analog converter (DAC) mismatch correction. A theoretical time-domain analysis technique was developed to predict the noise performance of the incremental ADC, and a new optimization technique was proposed to minimize the output noise. In the calibration mode, the incremental ADC...

  • Power Efficient Architectures for High Accuracy Analog-to-Digital Converters

    Creator:
    Zhang, Yi
    Abstract:
    Incremental ADCs (IADCs) have found wide applications in sensor interface circuitry since, compared to ∆Σ ADCs, they provide low-latency high-accuracy conversion and easy multiplexing among multiple channels. On the other hand, continuous-time ∆Σ ADCs (CTDSM) have been receiving more and more attention as a power-efficient solution in targeting medium to...

  • Micropower incremental analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Chen, Chia-Hung
    Abstract:
    Incremental ADCs (IADCs) have many advantages for low-frequency high-accuracy data conversion—they are easy to multiplex between channels, need simpler digital decimation filter, and allow extended counting with a Nyquist-rate ADC. A single-loop incremental ADC was designed and fabricated in 90 nm for a biosensor interface circuit. It incorporates one integrator,...

  • Low voltage switched capacitor circuits for lowpass and bandpass [delta sigma] converters

    Creator:
    Keskin, Mustafa
    Abstract:
    The most accurate method for performing analog signal processing in MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) integrated circuits is through the use of switched-capacitor circuits. A switched-capacitor circuit operates as a discrete-time signal processor. These circuits have been used in a variety of applications, such as filters, gain stages, voltage-controlled oscillators, and modulators. A...

    Creator:
    Zali Asl, Samira
    Abstract:
    For today’s ubiquitous portable devices, innovative integrated circuits with high performance yet very low power are necessary. As these devices are used to communicate and sense real world signals in the environment, analog-to-digital converters (ADC) and systems are the key interface circuits needed to digitize the sensed information and they...

    Meng, Qingdong
    Abstract:
    With the growing demand for portable/consumer electronics, such as digital audio/video (AV), the downscaling of device dimensions, which enables the integration of an increasing number of transistors in a single chip, is mandatory. This trend also continuously pushes the power supply voltage down to reduce the power consumption and improve...
