Embodiments include circuit devices and methods for re-clocking an input signal. In an embodiment, a circuit device includes a data storage element having a data input to receive a digital data stream having a first clock rate and including a clock input to receive a clock signal having a second clock rate. The data storage element further includes logic to adjust edge timing of transitions within the digital data stream based on the clock signal to produce a modulated output signal having a power spectrum with spectral nulls at a desired frequency and its harmonics without changing an average data rate.

An oversampled analog-to-digital converter (ADC) (20) includes a sigma-delta modulator (21) with two decimation filters to provide minimum power consumption. The first decimation filter (30) converts the output of the sigma-delta modulator (21) to a slower intermediate frequency and performs a first part of the decimation function. The second decimation filter (40) converts the output of the first decimation filter (30) to the output frequency and performs a second part of the decimation function. The ADC (20) saves power by allowing some of the second part of the decimation function to be performed at the slower intermediate frequency. In one form, the first decimation filter (30) includes a finite impulse response (FIR) filter (32) and a down sampler (34). By using a suitable logic circuit (56), the FIR filter (32) can be implemented with only a small amount of circuit area and most of the FIR filter (32) can be operated at the slower intermediate frequency.
