Continuous-time delta-sigma ADC with scalable sampling rates and excess loop delay compensation
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for implementing sampling rate scaling of an excess loop delay (ELD)-compensated continuous-time delta-sigma modulator (CTDSM) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). One example ADC generally includes a loop filter; a quantizer having an input coupled to an output of the loop filter; one or more digital-to-analog converters (DACs), each having an input coupled to an output of the quantizer, an output coupled to an input of the loop filter, and a data latch comprising a clock input for the DAC coupled to a clock input for the ADC; and a clock delay circuit having an input coupled to the clock input for the ADC and an output coupled to a clock input for the quantizer.
