Abstract:
A hybrid tuning circuit is used consisting of a digital finite state machine and an analog tuning circuit to effectively keep the RC product of the continuous time integrator constant across process, temperature, supply, and sampling rate variations. Since the implementation is continuous, the tracking is more accurate than traditional techniques. Using a carefully chosen clocking scheme, the technique gets rid of inter-symbol interference in the feedback DAC. The technique does not use a reference frequency, thereby eliminating the need for a user to identify a reference frequency.
