Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for calibrating a data processing circuit. For example, a method for calibrating a data processing circuit is discussed that includes providing a digital filter, providing a detector circuit, and providing an analog filter. Operation of the digital filter is at least in part governed by filter taps that correspond to a filter tap constraint value. Operation of the detector circuit is at least in part governed by a target parameter. Operation of the analog filter is at least in part governed by an analog parameter that is one of a plurality of analog parameters. The methods further include selecting a target parameter, and calculating the filter tap constraint value based on the target parameter. Combinations of the target parameter, the calculated filter tap constraint value, and each of the plurality of analog parameters are applied to identify the analog parameter.

A method of digitally processing an analog signal in continuous time includes producing a continuous-time digital signal from an analog signal via a technique that does not include periodic sampling, then producing one or more delayed versions of the continuous-time digital signal. Each delayed version is delayed by nT, where n is an integer greater than zero, and T is a delay interval. The method further includes multiplying the continuous-time digital signal and each of the delayed versions by one or more associated coefficients, so as to produce a set of products, then adding the set of products, so as to produce a sum value corresponding to the analog signal processed by a transfer function defined by the associated coefficients. The individual bit paths of the continuous-time digital signal are multiplied by the coefficients, and the resulting products are combined by a binary-weighted adder.

The invention intends to reduce noises by resistors in an output filter for a delta sigma modulator. The output filter uses an FIR filter with constant current sources as the current source, extracts output data of the delta sigma modulator from each taps of a shift register, controls MOS transistors by the extracted delayed signals, attains currents weighted according to the FIR filter coefficients corresponding to the number of the taps from the constant current sources, adds the currents attained, and performs the current-to-voltage conversion of the currents thus attained by feedback resistors of a full differential operational amplifier.

A computed tomography imaging method includes receiving an analog beam intensity signal from a computed tomography scanner and converting the signal into a series of digital representations of the signal at successive points in time using a predetermined sample rate. Indications that a portion of the scanner has reached a certain position relative to the beam are received asynchronously with respect to the sample rate. The value of at least one of the digital representations is adjusted in response to the indications to obtain a corrected digital representation of the analog signal.

A multi-level digital filter system applicable to modems is provided. The incoming data is read serially into M shift registers and read out in parallel by M further shift registers under the control of an M-bit clock, where M log2N and N is the number of levels. After appropriate conditioning by a logic control circuit, the parallel outputs are filtered separately by M digital shaping filters. The shaping filters each comprise a chain of shift registers the outputs of which are weighted by a resistor network and summed to produce a desired time response, which in an exemplary embodiment is the inverse Fourier transform of an ideal low-pass filter. Summing of the filter outputs produces an N-level signal.

A delta-sigma A/D converter includes a D/A converter realized with a mixed-mode comb filter connected in a feedback loop from the output of the A/D converter to the input of the A/D converter. The D/A converter is configured to predistort a feedback signal. The converter further includes an analogue filter at the input of the A/D converter. The analogue filter is configured to cancel the predistortion of the feedback signal.

An active current steering semi-digital FIR filter for a digital-to-analog conversion circuit, which includes a shift register having a 1-bit digital input stream and a plurality of output taps, where each output tap provides a 1-bit signal which has a value of a logic 1 or a logic 0, and a plurality of current paths, where each path includes an active element, such as a transistor, having a relatively high output impedance, which is connected to a common current source, and to an op amp for current-to-voltage conversion. The relatively high output impedance of the active current steering element causes any error term resulting from offset at the op amp inputs to be minimized.
