    摘要: A low-distortion band-pass delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter (ADC), including an odd-phase sample and hold circuit coupled to a even-phase resonator, improves tolerance to mismatches between analog circuit components. The low-distortion ADC includes a feed-forward signal path that reduces, or eliminates, the input signal beyond the first summation point. In this way, the dynamic range and matching accuracy required of the resonator is reduced. An odd-phase sample and hold circuit shifts S/H spurious signals out-of-band. A two-phase resonator reduces in-band noise degradation caused by any mismatches between the resonator components.

A previous value of the first stream of digital data words is received and memorized. The most recent and the previous values of the stream of digital data words are combined to create a second data stream. The words are converted in the second data stream into a serial representation. The serial representation is transmitted on a single wire interface.

    摘要: Configuring an analog-to-digital converter includes receiving a control signal and an input analog signal at an analog-to-digital converter, where the control signal has either a first state or a second state. The first state is associated with a first configuration and the second state is associated with a second configuration. If the control signal has the first state, the analog-to-digital-converter is configured in the first configuration and a digital signal comprising a first digital signal is generated according to a pipeline conversion. If the control signal has the second state the analog-to-digital converter is configured in the second configuration and the digital signal comprising a second digital signal is generated according to a multi-stage sigma delta modulation conversion. The digital signal is processed to yield a digital output.

    摘要: A data shuffler apparatus for shuffling input bits includes a plurality of bit shufflers each inputting corresponding two bits x0 and x1 of the input bits and outputting a vector {x0′, x1′} such that a number of 1's at bit x0′ over time is within ∀1 of a number of 1's at bit x1′. At least two 4-bit vector shufflers input the vectors {x0′, x1′}, and output 4-bit vectors, each 4-bit vector corresponding to a combination of corresponding two vectors {x0′, x1′} produced by the bit shufflers, such that the 4-bit vector shufflers operate on the vectors {x0′, x1′} in the same manner as the bit shufflers operate on the bits x0 and x1. The current state of the bit shufflers is updated based on a next state of the 4-bit vector shufflers.

    摘要: Methods and systems for applying digital dither in data converters, such as delta-sigma data converters. In one embodiment, an analog signal from a first path of a delta-sigma modulator is quantized to an m-bit digital signal and an n-bit dithered digital feedback signal is generated from at least a portion of the m-bit digital signal. The n-bit dithered digital feedback signal is converted to an analog feedback signal and fed back to a second path of the delta-sigma modulator. In another embodiment, the n-bit dithered digital feedback signal is generated by selecting one of a plurality of sets of n-bits from the m-bit digital signal depending upon a state of a dither control signal. The dither control signal can alternate or pseudo-randomly switch between a plurality of states. The m-bit digital signal may be an m-bit thermometer code signal.

    摘要: An analog signal outputting circuit comprises two unit analog circuits for outputting an analog signal, corresponding to levels “−1” or “1”, and a low-pass filter for smoothing the analog signal output from the two unit analog circuits, as selected by codes output from the four-valued delta-sigma modulator. In case the input signal is −2 or +2, outputs of the unit analog circuits are summed together to output an analog signal corresponding to −2 or +2. In case the input signal is −1 or +1, outputs of the unit analog circuits are alternately used to output an analog signal corresponding to −1 or +1 to reduce the non-linearity error resulting from variations in the analog devices.

    摘要: In a digital amplifier, a time controller generates first and second selection signals for outputting any one of music data, a center output, and a lowest output to a P output and an N output based on a power ON/OFF signal and a start/stop signal, and also generates a third selection signal for determining whether a signal having the same phase as that of the P output is output to the N output or a signal obtained by inverting the P output is output to the N output. A data selection circuit determines data to be output to the P output and the N output based on the first and second selection signals. An output data register circuit converts parallel data determined by the data selection circuit into serial data to output the serial data into the P output. An output selection circuit determines the N output based on the third selection signal.

    摘要: A digital-to-analog converter (“DAC”) system utilizes chopping modulation technology to remove 1/f and other baseband noise from a baseband of a signal of interest. Chopping modulation and demodulation circuitry of the DAC operate at a chopping frequency equal to approximately one-half of a digital input signal sampling frequency. Chopping at one-half the sampling frequency allows fold back into the baseband of the input signal's frequency components and reduces fold back of noise, such as quantization noise, residing outside the baseband. In a further embodiment, a notch filter attenuates signals having frequencies around the chopping frequency prior to chopping to reduce fold back of noise into the baseband due to parasitic modulation. Coordination of chopping timing also reduces noises in the output of the DAC system.
