  • Wideband discrete-time delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters with shifted loop delays

    Creator:
    Meng, Xin
    Abstract:
    Low-distortion architecture is widely used in wideband discrete-time switched-capacitor delta-sigma ADC design. However, it suffers from the power-hungry active adder and critical timing for quantization and dynamic element matching (DEM). To solve this problem, this dissertation presents a delta-sigma modulator architecture with shifted loop delays. In this project, shifted loop...

  • Improved design techniques for low-voltage low-power switched-capacitor delta-sigma modulators

    Creator:
    Grilo, Jorge
    Abstract:
    This dissertation investigates the constraints which arise when switched-capacitor (SC) delta-sigma modulators are designed for low-voltage operation, targeting also low power dissipation, and proposes methods of improving the performance and optimizing for low power dissipation. This is accomplished by identifying critical elements whose performance can lead to increased power dissipation,...

  • The design of delta-sigma modulators for multi-standard RF receivers

    Creator:
    Liu, Mingliang
    Abstract:
    The transition from second-generation (2G) to third-generation (3G) wireless cellular and cordless telephone systems requires multi-standard adaptability in a single RF receiver equipment. An important answer to this request is the use of Delta-Sigma modulators for IF-to-baseband conversion, which will satisfy the dynamic range requirements for digital signal processing, and...

  • A study of basic building blocks of analog-to-digital delta-sigma modulators

    Creator:
    Guo, Yuhua
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, a novel Direct-Charge-Transfer (DCT) integrator structure is proposed, which can settle much faster than regular switch-capacitor integrators. A new Spread-Spectrum Dynamic Element Matching (SS-DEM) algorithm is also introduced, which can effectively spread or shape the nonlinearity error of multi-bit DAC in the feedback path, thus improve the...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • High-performance delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    da Silva, Jose Barreiro
    Abstract:
    Multi-stage delta-sigma (ΔΣ) architectures, commonly known as MASH, are the preferred choice for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) used in broadband communication applications, where high-resolution (above 14 bits) and high-bandwidth (several MHz) performances are required. Current state-of-the-art designs are capable of as much as 5-MS/s output data rates with 90-dB SNR. However,...

  • Fast opamp-free delta sigma modulator

    Creator:
    Thomas, Daniel E.
    Abstract:
    Switched-capacitor (SC) circuits are commonly used for analog signal processing because they can be used to realize precision filters and data converters on an integrated circuit (IC). However, for high speed applications SC circuit operating speeds are limited by the internally-compensated opamps found in SC integrators, a common building block...
