Abstract: A method and apparatus for analog to digital conversion using sigma-delta modulation of the temporal spacing between digital samples. The method and apparatus of the present invention provides for sigma-delta modulation of the time base such that errors produced by non-uniform sampling are frequency-shaped to a region (i.e., shifted to higher frequencies) where they can be removed by conventional filtering techniques. In one embodiment, digital data is interpolated under control of a sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal that represents, on average, the data rate of the digital data to be output by the converter and then decimated by a fixed ratio. The frequency selection signal is modulated using an n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator. Data thus emerges from the interpolation/decimation process at the sample rate selected by the n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator. The method and apparatus converts the data rate of an incoming digital data stream from an ADC to the data rate determined by the n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for analog-to-digital conversion using sigma-delta modulation of the temporal spacing between digital samples are provided. The method and apparatus include sigma-delta modulation of the time-base such that errors produced by non-uniform sampling are frequency-shaped to a high frequency region where they are reduced by conventional digital filtering techniques. In one embodiment, a sigma-delta ADC receives an analog input signal and converts the analog input signal to digital samples at an oversampling rate. A decimator, coupled to the sigma-delta ADC, receives the digital samples and decimates the digital samples to produce the digital samples at a preselected output sample rate, less than the oversampling rate. An ADC sample rate control circuit, coupled to the ADC, receives a frequency select signal representing the preselected output sample rate, and produces a noise-shaped clock signal for controlling operation of the ADC at the oversampling rate. The control circuit includes a sigma-delta modulator for sigma-delta modulating the frequency select signal. A randomizer/suppressor circuit, under control of the output of the sigma-delta modulator, receives an input clock signal and adjusts the frequency of the clock signal to produce a noise-shaped clock signal for controlling the oversampling rate of the ADC.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for digital-to-digital conversion using sigma-delta modulation of the temporal spacing between digital samples. The method and apparatus of the present invention provides for sigma-delta modulation of the time base such that noise produced by NONUNIFORM sampling are frequency-shaped to a region (i.e., shifted to higher frequencies where it can be removed by conventional filtering techniques.

Thereafter, the digital data is interpolated (30) under control of a second sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal (46) that represents, on average, the data rate of the digital data to be output by the converter and then decimated (40) by a fixed ratio. In another embodiment, the digital data is interpolated under control of a first sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal that represents, on average, the data rate of the incoming digital data stream and then decimated by a fixed ratio. Thereafter, the digital data is interpolated by a fixed ratio and then decimated under control of a second sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal that represents, on average, the data rate of the digital data to be output by the converter. The first and second frequency signal selection numbers are modulated using n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulators. The method and apparatus converts the data rate of the incoming digital data stream to the data rate of the first n-th m-bit sigma-delta modulator and then converts the digital data stream from the first sigma-delta modulator (20) to an output data rate determined by the second n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator (32).
