    摘要: A self-calibrating continuous-time delta-sigma modulator determines whether time constants of its internal integrators are too large or too small by injecting a calibrating sequence into the modulator and examining a correlation between the calibrating sequence and a modulator output sequence. Then the time constants of the internal integrators are adjusted accordingly. In one embodiment, the correlation is exploited based on matching a noise transfer function of the modulator using an adaptive filter based on a least mean square (LMS) algorithm.

    摘要: A primary delta-sigma modulator converts a continuous-time input signal into a discrete-time output sequence. A calibration circuit comprising an auxiliary delta-sigma modulator estimates percentage error in an integrator time constant and adjusts the time constant of at least one integrator in the primary delta-sigma modulator accordingly. The auxiliary delta-sigma modulator and the primary delta-sigma modulator use integrators with substantially similar circuit designs. The percentage error in the time constant of the integrator in the auxiliary delta-sigma modulator, and correspondingly the percentage error in time constant of the integrator in the primary delta-sigma modulator, is estimated by injecting a calibrating sequence into the auxiliary delta-sigma modulator and examining a correlation between an error sequence and an output sequence of the auxiliary delta-sigma modulator.

    摘要: A low flicker noise active mixer comprises a trans-conductance section, a switching quad, and a load section. The trans-conductance section converts a voltage signal pair into a first current signal pair. The switching quad converts the first current signal pair into a second signal pair in a manner controlled by a LO (local oscillator) signal pair. The load section provides a loading to the second current signal pair using a pair of commutative active loads to convert the second current signal pair into an output voltage signal pair.

    摘要: A representative method of serial link transceiver without external reference clock is disclosed. The method includes: receiving an incoming signal; generating a local timing under control of a control code; generating a temperature sensor code by sensing a local temperature; generating a logical signal by detecting a presence of the incoming signal; adjusting the control code in a closed loop manner to make the local timing match that of the incoming signal and recording the control code and a value of the temperature sensor code as part of a template when the logical signal is asserted; and synthesizing the control code in accordance with the template when the logical signal is not asserted.
