    摘要: A method and apparatus for adjusting a bandwidth of a sigma delta converter by adjusting a reference voltage provided to the sigma delta converter. The apparatus includes a switched capacitor digital-to-analog converter in the feedback loop of the sigma delta modulator. The sigma delta modulator determines the bandwidth mode of the converter and adjusts the reference voltage to deliver high performance functionality. In one embodiment, a multi-bit digital signal is received by the digital-to-analog converter. The reference voltage is provided to multiple capacitive circuits of the digital-to-analog converter and the capacitive circuits are activated and deactivated based on the multi-bit digital signal. The digital-to-analog converter, thus, provides a feedback analog signal using dynamic element matching.

    摘要: A scalable dynamic range analog-to-digital converter. In one instance, a method of scaling a dynamic range of an analog-to-digital converter is provided. The method includes operating the analog-to-digital converter at a first dynamic range. The method also includes receiving a radio frequency signal and detecting an on-channel signal level of the radio frequency signal. The method also includes when the on-channel signal level is above an on-channel threshold, operating the analog-to-digital converter at a second dynamic range. The method also includes when the on-channel signal level is below the on-channel threshold, operating the analog-to-digital converter at the first dynamic range.
