A quadrature fourth-order, continuous-time, /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator with 1.5-b quantizer and feedback digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for a universal mobile telecommunication system (UMTS) receiver chain is presented. It achieves a dynamic range of 70 dB in a 2-MHz bandwidth and the total harmonic distortion is -74 dB at full-scale input. When used in an integrated receiver for UMTS, the dynamic range of the modulator substantially reduces the need for analog automatic gain control and its tolerance of large out-of-band interference also permits the use of only first-order prefiltering. An IC including an I and Q /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator, phase-locked loop, oscillator, and bandgap dissipates 11.5 mW at 1.8 V. The active area is 0.41 mm/sup 2/ in a 0.18-/spl mu/m 1-poly 5-metal CMOS technology. 相似文献

Quadrature sampling of intermediate frequency (IF) signals is subject to the well-known problem of gain and phase mismatches between the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) channels. This paper presents an IF-input quadrature-sampling switched-capacitor (SC) /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator that circumvents the I/Q mismatch problem by time-sharing between the I and Q channels the critical circuit components, namely, the sampling capacitor and the capacitor of the first-stage feedback digital-to-analog converter (DAC). In addition, a clocking scheme that is insensitive to I/Q phase imbalance is used. A third-order single-loop 1-bit low-pass modulator has been designed and fabricated in a 0.35-/spl mu/m CMOS process with an active area of 0.57mm/sup 2/. The experimental results show that the modulator achieves an image-rejection ratio (IRR) of greater than 75dB throughout a 200-kHz signal bandwidth. 相似文献

In this paper, we present a new continuous-time bandpass delta-sigma (/spl Delta//spl Sigma/) modulator architecture with mixer inside the feedback loop. The proposed bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator is insensitive to time-delay jitter in the digital-to-analog conversion feedback pulse, unlike conventional continuous-time bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators. The sampling frequency of the proposed /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator can be less than the center frequency of the input narrow-band signal. 相似文献

This paper presents a means to overcome the high sensitivity of continuous-time sigma-delta (/spl Sigma//spl Delta/) modulators to clock jitter by using a modified switched-capacitor structure with resistive element in the continuous-time feedback digital-analog converter (DAC). The reduced sensitivity to jitter is both simulated and proven by measured results from two implemented third-order modulators. Additionally, the nonideal behavior is analyzed analytically and by simulations. 相似文献

This paper presents the first implementation results for a time-interleaved continuous-time /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator. The derivation of the time-interleaved continuous-time /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator from a discrete-time /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator is presented. With various simplifications, the resulting modulator has only a single path of integrators, making it robust to DC offsets. A time-interleaved by 2 continuous-time third-order low-pass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator is designed in a 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS technology with an oversampling ratio of 5 at sampling frequencies of 100 and 200 MHz. Experimental results show that a signal-to-noise-plus-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 57 dB and a dynamic range of 60 dB are obtained with an input bandwidth of 10 MHz, and an SNDR of 49 dB with a dynamic range of 55 dB is attained with an input bandwidth of 20 MHz. The power consumption is 101 and 103 mW, respectively. 相似文献

A continuous-time sigma-delta modulator with 88-dB dynamic range and 1.1-MHz signal bandwidth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This paper presents the design and experimental results of a continuous-time /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator for ADSL applications. Multibit nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) DAC pulse shaping is used to reduce clock jitter sensitivity. The nonzero excess loop delay problem in conventional continuous-time /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators is solved by our proposed architecture. A prototype third-order continuous-time /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator with 5-bit internal quantization was realized in a 0.5-/spl mu/m double-poly triple-metal CMOS technology, with a chip area of 2.4 /spl times/ 2.4 mm/sup 2/. Experimental results show that the modulator achieves 88-dB dynamic range, 84-dB SNR, and 83-dB SNDR over a 1.1-MHz signal bandwidth with an oversampling ratio of 16, while dissipating 62 mW from a 3.3-V supply. 相似文献

This paper presents the design strategy, implementation, and experimental results of a power-efficient third-order low-pass /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ analog-to-digital converter (ADC) using a continuous-time (CT) loop filter. The loop filter has been implemented by using active RC integrators. Several power optimizations, design requirements, and performance limitations relating to circuit nonidealities in the CT modulator are presented. The influence of the low supply voltage on the various building blocks such as the amplifier as well as on the overall /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator is discussed. The ADC was implemented in a 3.3-V 0.5-/spl mu/m CMOS technology with standard threshold voltages. Measurements of the low-power 1.5-V CT /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ ADC show a dynamic range and peak signal-to-noise-plus-distortion ratio of 80 and 70 dB, respectively, in a bandwidth of 25 kHz. The measured power consumption is only 135 /spl mu/W from a single 1.5-V power supply. 相似文献

Bandpass modulators sampling at high IFs (/spl sim/200 MHz) allow direct sampling of an IF signal, reducing analog hardware, and make it easier to realize completely software-programmable receivers. This paper presents the circuit design of and test results from a continuous-time tunable IF-sampling fourth-order bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator implemented in InP HBT IC technology for use in a multimode digital receiver application. The bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator is fabricated in AlInAs-GaInAs heterojunction bipolar technology with a peak unity current gain cutoff frequency (f/sub T/) of 130 GHz and a maximum frequency of oscillation (f/sub MAX/) of 130 GHz. The fourth-order bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator consists of two bandpass resonators that can be tuned to optimize both wide-band and narrow-band operation. The IF is tunable from 140 to 210 MHz in this /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator for use in multiple platform applications. Operating from /spl plusmn/5-V power supplies, the fabricated fourth-order /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator sampling at 4 GSPS demonstrates stable behavior and achieves a signal-to-(noise + distortion) ratio (SNDR) of 78 dB at 1 MHz BW and 50 dB at 60 MHz BW. The average SNDR performance measured on over 250 parts is 72.5 dB at 1 MHz BW and 47.7 dB at 60 MHz BW. 相似文献

Efficient sampling of the reference noise within a bilinear switched capacitor /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ analog-to-digital converter (ADC), resulting in improved thermal noise performance is presented. Bilinear integrators contain a zero at the Nyquist frequency, with the result that no charge is transferred from the reference when a transition occurs in the modulator output. The average noise power added by the reference digital-to-analog converter (DAC) can be reduced substantially if the reference DAC is sampled only when charge is to be transferred. For midscale inputs, the sampled noise from a single bit reference DAC is reduced by more than 5 dB. When multibit quantization and feedback is used the reference noise can be further suppressed, in the case of 5 bits of feedback the reference noise is reduced by more than 20 dB. 相似文献

We derive a method for using distributed resonators in /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators and demonstrate these /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators have several advantages over existing /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator architectures. Like continuous-time (CT) /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators, the proposed /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators do not require a high-precision track-and-hold, and additionally can take advantage of the high-Q of distributed resonators. Like discrete-time /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators, the proposed /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators are relatively insensitive to feedback loop delays and can subsample. We present simulations of several types of these /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators and examine the challenges in their design. 相似文献

This paper presents a quadrature bandpass /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator with continuous-time architecture. Due to the continuous-time architecture and the inherent anti-aliasing filter, the proposed /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator needs no additional anti-aliasing filter in front of the modulator in contrast to quadrature bandpass /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators with switched-capacitor architectures. The second-order /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator digitizes complex analog I/Q input signals at 1-MHz intermediate frequency and operates within a clock frequency range of 25-100 MHz. The modulator chip achieves a peak signal-to-noise-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 56.7 dB and a dynamic range of 63.8 dB within a 1-MHz signal bandwidth and at a clock frequency of 100 MHz. Furthermore, it provides an image rejection of at least 40 dB. The 0.65-/spl mu/m BiCMOS chip consumes 21.8 mW at 2.7-V supply voltage. 相似文献

Direct digital synthesis of signals in the hundreds of megahertz can lead to simpler, smaller transceivers, free of images and LO feedthrough that plague systems requiring analog upconversion. We present a 3-bit, 2 GS/s, /spl Delta//spl Sigma/-modulated DAC in InP HBT technology. The DAC is linearized using bandpass mismatch shaping. The mismatch shaper uses seven tunable 1.5-bit discrete-time bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators to dynamically route the digital signals to the DACs. These /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulators operate in the analog domain to decrease system complexity and power consumption. The mismatch-shaped DAC can generate narrowband signals between 250-750 MHz with >68 dB SNR in a 1-MHz bw, >74-dB SFDR, and <-80-dBc intermodulation distortion with an 8.1-W power consumption. 相似文献

A 1 V switched-capacitor (SC) bandpass sigma-delta (/spl Sigma//spl Delta/) modulator is realized using a high-speed switched-opamp (SO) technique with a sampling frequency of up to 50 MHz, which is improved ten times more than prior 1 V SO designs and comparable to the performance of the state-of-the-art SC circuits that operate at much higher supply voltages. On the system level, a fast-settling double-sampling SC biquadratic filter architecture is proposed to achieve high-speed operation. A low-voltage double-sampling finite-gain-compensation technique is employed to realize a high-resolution /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator using only low-DC-gain opamps to maximize the speed and to reduce power dissipation. On the circuit level, a fast-switching methodology is proposed for the design of the switchable opamps to achieve a switching frequency up to 50 MHz. Implemented in a 0.35-/spl mu/m CMOS process (V/sub TP/=0.82 V and V/sub TN/=0.65 V) and at 1 V supply, the modulator achieves a measured peak signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 42.3 dB at 10.7 MHz with a signal bandwidth of 200 kHz, while dissipating 12 mW and occupying a chip area of 1.3 mm/sup 2/. 相似文献

An oversampling bandpass digital-to-analog converter has been designed so as to eliminate the carrier leak and in-band SNR degradation that accompany I and Q channel mismatch in wireless transmitters. The converter combines a cascaded noise-shaping sigma-delta (/spl Sigma//spl Delta/) modulator with digital finite impulse response (FIR) and mixed-signal semi-digital filters that attenuate out-of-band quantization noise. The performance of the converter in the presence of current source mismatch has been improved through the use of bandpass data weighted averaging. An experimental prototype of the converter, integrated in a 0.25-/spl mu/m CMOS technology, provides 83 dB of dynamic range for a 6.25-MHz signal band centered at 50 MHz, and suppresses out-of-band quantization noise by 38 dB. 相似文献

We present a tool that starting from high-level specifications of switched-capacitor (SC) /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators calculates optimum specifications for their building blocks and then optimum sizes for the block schematics. At both design levels, optimization is performed using statistical techniques to enable global design and innovative heuristics for increased computer efficiency as compared with conventional statistical optimization. The tool uses an equation-based approach at the modulator level, a simulation-based approach at the cell level, and incorporates an advanced /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ behavioral simulator for monitoring and design space exploration. We include measurements taken from two silicon prototypes: (1) a 16 b @ 16 kHz output rate second-order /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator; and (2) a 17 b @ 40 kHz output rate fourth-order /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator. Both use SC fully differential circuits and were designed using the proposed tool and manufactured in a 1.2 /spl mu/m CMOS double-metal double-poly technology.<> 相似文献

A second-order multibit bandpass /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator (BP/spl Sigma//spl Delta/M) used for the digitizing of AM/FM radio broadcasting signals at a 10.7-MHz IF is presented. The BP/spl Sigma//spl Delta/M is realized with switched-capacitor (SC) techniques and operates with a sampling frequency of 37.05 MHz. The input impulse current, required by the SC input branch, is minimized by the use of a switched buffer without deteriorating the overall system performance. The accuracy of the in-band noise shaping is ensured with two self-calibrating control systems. In a 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS technology, the device die size is 1 mm/sup 2/ and the power consumption is 88 mW. In production, the BP/spl Sigma//spl Delta/M features at least 78-dB dynamic range and 72-dB peak SNR within a 200-kHz bandwidth (FM bandwidth). The intermodulation (IMD) is -65 dBc for two tones at -11 dBFS. The robustness of the aforementioned performance is demonstrated by the fact that it has been realized with the BP/spl Sigma//spl Delta/M embedded in the noisy on-chip environment of a complete mixed-signal FM receiver. 相似文献

The theoretical error signal analysis of a sigma-delta (/spl Sigma//spl Delta/) modulator is a difficult problem due to the presence of a nonlinear operation (the amplitude quantization) in a feedback loop. In this paper, new deterministic knowledge on the transfer function of a /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator is established, thanks to some recently observed properties of its state variables. For a large class of typical /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators with constant inputs, the state variables appear to remain in a tile. We show what characteristics in a /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator are specifically responsible for this property and give some initial proof of it. Under a constant input, the tiling phenomenon has as fundamental consequence that the output is a fixed and memoryless modulo function of n successive integrated versions of the input. This gives the theoretical knowledge that the modulator has an equivalent feedforward circuit expression. We give some immediate theoretical consequences on error analysis including the case of time-varying inputs. 相似文献

This paper presents a direct digital frequency synthesizer (DDFS) with a 16-bit accumulator, a fourth-order phase domain single-stage /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ interpolator, and a 300-MS/s 12-bit current-steering DAC based on the Q/sup 2/ Random Walk switching scheme. The /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ interpolator is used to reduce the phase truncation error and the ROM size. The implemented fourth-order single-stage /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ noise shaper reduces the effective phase bits by four and reduces the ROM size by 16 times. The DDFS prototype is fabricated in a 0.35-/spl mu/m CMOS technology with active area of 1.11mm/sup 2/ including a 12-bit DAC. The measured DDFS spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is greater than 78 dB using a reduced ROM with 8-bit phase, 12-bit amplitude resolution and a size of 0.09 mm/sup 2/. The total power consumption of the DDFS is 200mW with a 3.3-V power supply. 相似文献

This paper presents a high-level synthesis tool for /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators (/spl Sigma//spl Delta/Ms) that combines an accurate SIMULINK-based time-domain behavioral simulator with a statistical optimization core. Three different circuit techniques for the modulator implementation are considered: switched-capacitor, switched-current and continuous-time. The behavioral models of these circuits, that take into account the most critical limiting factors, have been incorporated into the SIMULINK environment by using S-function blocks, which drastically increase the computational efficiency. The precision of these models has been validated by electrical simulations using HSPICE and experimental measurements from several silicon prototypes. The combination of high accuracy, short CPU time and interoperability of different circuit models together with the efficiency of the optimization engine makes the proposed tool an advantageous alternative for /spl Sigma//spl Delta/M synthesis. The implementation on the well-known MATLAB/SIMULINK platform brings numerous advantages in terms of data manipulation, processing capabilities, flexibility and simulation with other electronic subsystems. Moreover, this is the first tool dealing with the synthesis of /spl Sigma//spl Delta/Ms using both discrete-time and continuous-time circuit techniques. 相似文献

An analytical design methodology for continuous-time (CT) bandpass (BP) /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulators is presented. Second- and fourth-order tunable continuous time BP /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator design equations are presented. A novel /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ loop architecture, where the traditional CT BP loop filter function is replaced with the filter function with fractional delays, is proposed. Validity of the methodology is confirmed by mixed-signal behavioral simulations. 相似文献
