Abstract:
A delta-sigma modulator is configured to sense and convert an electromagnetic field into a digital signal. An exemplary delta-sigma modulator includes a sensor component, such as an LC resonator, that is configured to sense the electromagnetic field and generate an input analog signal, where the delta-sigma modulator is configured to convert the input analog signal to the digital signal. Delta-sigma modulator can include an analog-to-digital converter coupled to the sensor component that receives and converts the input analog signal to the digital signal. Delta-sigma modulator can further include a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) coupled to the resonator and the ADC, the DAC configured to receive the digital signal from the ADC and generate a feedback analog signal.
