Abstract: | A high-resolution multibit sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC) implemented in a 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS technology is introduced. The circuit is targeted for an asymmetrical digital subscriber line (ADSL) central-office (CO) application . An area- and power-efficient realization of a second-order single-loop 3-bit modulator with an oversampling ratio of 96 is presented. The /spl Sigma//spl Delta/ modulator features an 85-dB dynamic range over a 300-kHz signal bandwidth. The measured power consumption of the ADC core is only 15 mW. An innovative biasing circuitry is introduced for the switched-capacitor integrators. |
