    摘要: A resistive sensor includes a current input sigma-delta converter that uses a switched offset voltage source to provide scalable gain and more linear operation. The sigma-delta converter includes an integrator, a quantizer, and a decimator. In one embodiment, the resistive sensor and offset voltage source are coupled to provide an input current at a first node. The integrator has a first input terminal coupled to the first node, and an output terminal. The quantizer has a first input terminal coupled to the output terminal of the integrator, a second input terminal for receiving a clock signal, and an output terminal coupled to provide a feedback signal to control the offset voltage source. The decimator has an input terminal coupled to the output terminal of the quantizer, and an output terminal for providing an output signal. The switched offset voltage source provides scalable gain and good linearity.

    摘要: An Analog-Digital Converter (ADC) is provided. The ADC includes a plurality of sigma-delta modulators, a plurality of decimators, a plurality of differentiators, and a plurality of XOR operators. The plurality of sigma-delta modulators respectively convert analog signals to digital pulses. The plurality of decimators respectively convert a first sampling rate of a corresponding digital pulse to a second sampling rate which is lower than the first sampling. The plurality of differentiators respectively differentiate signals converted at the second sampling rate to perform delta modulation. The plurality of XOR operators extract a signal component changing with respect to the delta-modulated signals. Therefore, the number of interface pins between a modem and an RFIC can be reduced.

    摘要: A digital IF to base band demodulator (120) includes delta sigma samplers (202, 204) for sampling two channels of an IF signal at a sampling rate that is substantially higher than the Nyquist rate for the IF signal. A first pair of decimation filters (206, 208) decimates and filters the output of the delta sigma samplers (202, 204) but keeps the samples at a rate sufficient to perform digital mixing, cross adding, and pulse shape match filtering. A set of mixers (210, 212, 214, 216) mixers the output of the first pair of decimation filters with two phases of a digital representation of an local IF signal. A pair of summers (222, 224) sums, and subtracts outputs of the set of mixers (210, 212, 214, 216) in order to cancel undesired harmonics. A second set of decimation filters (226, 228) decimates and filters the output of the summers (222, 224) applying a filter function that is matched to a pulse shape of a base band signal present in the IF signal.

    摘要: A noise cancellation circuit and quadrature downconverter for use in conjunction with a bandpass receiver. The noise cancellation comprises at least one bandpass decimator and a summer. The output from each loop of a sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ΣΔ ADC) is provided to a respective bandpass decimator. Each bandpass decimator comprises an error cancellation filter, a bandpass filter, and a decimator. The transfer functions of the error cancellation filter and bandpass filter are convolved to provide the transfer function of the bandpass decimator. The filtered signal is then decimated by N. The decimation by N can be incorporated within the bandpass decimator such that the bandpass decimator operates at 1/N of the frequency of the ADC sampling clock. The signals from all bandpass decimators are summed together and the resultant IF samples are provided to two multipliers which downconvert the IF samples to I and Q baseband samples with an inphase and a quadrature sinusoid, respectively. The baseband samples are lowpass filtered to further remove quantization noise and undesirable signals. The center frequency of the analog input signal, the ADC sampling clock, and the decimation by N can be selected such that an image of the input signal appears at 0.25fs, where fs is the sample rate of the decimated samples.

    摘要: Dans le cas du convertisseur analogique-numérique interpolatif pour signaux de passe-bande selon l'invention, la quantification d'amplitudes des valeurs de balayage est effectuée dans 2 étages placés en série, le premier étage comprenant l'interface analogique-numérique proprement dite, et le second étage étant purement numérqiue. La quantification d'amplitudes des valeurs de balayage ne se fait pas ici, comme dans le cas des autres procédés, en utilisant des éléments finement quantifiés sur l'interface analogique-numérique, mais elle se fait par surbalayage, formation spectrale du bruit de quantification et interpolation numérique. Ceci permet d'utiliser sur l'interface analogique-numérique proprement dite des éléments à très basse définition (dans le cas extrême seulement avec 2 étages de quantification).

    摘要: Un dispositif est utilisé pour convertir un signal d'entrée en un signal numérique de sortie à une fréquence présélectionnée d'échantillonnage avec une augmentation de la plage dynamique sans provoquer de crénelage. Le mode préféré de réalisation utilise un convertisseur (104) pour produire un signal numérique de basse résolution à une haute fréquence, et un agencement de filtre numérique (106) d'établissement de moyenne pour augmenter la résolution à la fréquence présélectionnée d'échantillonnage. Le dispositif peut produire aisément des signaux numériques de sortie d'au moins 17 bits, à une fréquence, par exemple, de 48KHZ.
