    摘要: A continuous time sigma delta modulator having minimal excess loop delay. The continuous-time sigma delta modulator in accordance with the present invention includes at least one integrator stage coupled to receive an input signal and a resultant integrator output signal from a previous stage for providing a resultant integrator output. At least one output stage connects to the at least one integrator stage to receive the resultant integrator output signal from the previous integrator stage for providing a resultant integrator output. A sample and hold circuit connects to receive the second integrator input signal. A multiplier connects to the sample and hold circuit to provide a resultant sampled signal. An analog-to-digital converter quantizer couples to receive the resultant sampled signal and to produce a quantized output signal. A digital modulation loop circuit connects to the analog-to-digital converter quantizer to generate a resultant quantized output signal for correcting excess loop delay in the continuous time sigma delta modulator. A fourth feedback multiplier coupled to receive the resultant quantized output signal and produce a second resultant quantized output signal. A digital-to-analog converter coupled to receive the second resultant quantized output signal to produce a modulation feedback signal. A delay connects to the digital-to-analog converter to receive the modulation feedback signal and provide the resultant modulation feedback signal

    摘要: A digital transmitter (20) that may be advantageously used in a high-frequency transceiver, such as a wireless telephone handset, is disclosed. The transmitter (20) includes digital upconverter functions (36L, 36Q) that operate in combination with a digital band-pass sigma-delta modulator (40) to generate modulated digital signals at a sample frequency that is a multiple of the transmit frequency. The digital band-pass sigma-delta modulator (40) applies a noise transfer function in a feedback filter (72) in which the center of the pass band corresponds to the transmit frequency, and in which notches in the characteristic can be symmetrically or asymmetrically selected to correspond to specific frequencies, such as the receive band frequency, in which transmit noise is to be minimized. A combined FIR digital filter (42) and MOS power switch array (44) is also disclosed, in which a cascode arrangement of drain-extended MOS power transistors (78) and switching transistors (82) provide the output RF signal, with a coarse gain control (80) applied.
