Delta-sigma modulation has emerged as a pivotal technique in CMOS technology for high-resolution analogue‐to‐digital conversion. By utilising oversampling and noise-shaping strategies, this method ...

This in-depth article covers the theory behind a Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It specifically focuses on the difficult to understand key digital concepts of over-sampling, noise ...

Delta-sigma (ΔΣ) converters may sound complex, but at their core, they are all about precision. In this post, we will peel back the layers and uncover the fundamentals behind their elegant design. At ...

In part one, I compared the different Analog to Digital Converters (ADC) and the roles and properties of Delta Sigma ADC’s. I covered a lot of the theory behind these devices, so in this installment, ...

Q. Can you please explain, simply, as to a Bear of Little Brain 1, how sigma-delta converters work? A. By over-sampling, noise shaping and digital filtering. Athens is a beautiful city, with the ...

Sigma-delta converters are in wide use among applications that demand high precision and accuracy. A variant of the sigma-delta architecture, called the continuous-time sigma delta (CT-S?), has found ...

My last column showed how a single-stage delta-sigma modulator (DSM) produces an output that is a sum of the low pass-filtered input signal and the high pass-filtered quantization noise (see “Part 4,” ...

The transition from second-generation (2G) to third-generation (3G) wireless cellular systems requires multi-standard adaptability in a wireless receiver. An important answer to this request is the ...
