    摘要: A method and arrangement for setting an effective resolution of an output signal in an incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digital conversion by an incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter, includes feeding a difference between an input signal and a reference voltage signal formed in a feedback branch to a first integrator. Safeguarding the stability of multi-stage incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters for large input signal ranges and not requiring direct damping of the input signal, such that a direct SNR impairment with regard to the ADC-inherent noise sources can be avoided, is achieved by a virtual reference voltage in the feedback branch of the incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter. The reference voltage signal is adapted to a changing input signal range by a settable reference capacitance and a clock cycle number dependent thereon is set.

    摘要: A quantizer for an analog to digital converter has an input for receiving an analog input signal. A detector senses a common mode voltage component of the input signal. A reference voltage source produces a plurality of reference voltages. A voltage source biases the reference voltage source in response to the sensed common mode voltage component. Therefore, the common mode voltage in the input signal establishes the common mode voltage of the reference voltage source. A plurality of comparators are connected to the reference voltage source, wherein each of the plurality of comparators compares the input signal to one of the plurality of reference voltages and produces a output bit denoting a result of the comparing.

    摘要: System and method for common mode translation in continuous-time sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters. An embodiment includes a loop filter having an RC network coupled to a differential signal input, a Gm-C/Quantizer/DAC circuit (GQD) coupled to the loop filter, a common-mode level adjust circuit coupled to signal inputs of the GQD, and a tuning circuit coupled to the GQD and the common-mode level adjust circuit. The GQD evaluates an input signal provided by the RC network, computes a difference between a filtered input signal and the feedback quantization signal to generate an error signal, measures the error signal, and compensates for the error signal with sigma-delta noise-shaping. The common-mode level adjust circuit alters a common-mode level of a differential input signal to be substantially equal to a desired common-mode level and the tuning circuit provides a compensation voltage to the common-mode level adjust circuit based on a difference between the common-mode levels.

    摘要: Analog-to-digital converter including a sigma-delta modulator (SD) with noise shaping filtering. Signal transfer filtering is introduced in the feedback loop of the sigma-delta modulator. This may be done without affecting the noise shaping filtering e.g. with a signal transfer filter (L) in the forward path of the feedback loop and a complementary signal transfer path (H) in the feedback path of the loop. The analog-to-digital converter may be used for channel filtering, FM-demodulation and/or image rejection in communication receivers.

    摘要: A floating type analog-to-digital converter which is capable of converting an analog signal into a digital signal in a wide dynamic range, while exhibiting stable frequency characteristics due to the presence of symmetric pre-echo and post-echo in the impulse response waveform. An analog signal level adjusting device adjusts the level of an analog signal with different first gains, so as to generate a plurality of analog signals of different levels for analog-to-digital conversion. A plurality of analog-to-digital converters convert respective ones of the plurality of analog signals generated from the analog signal level adjusting device, into respective digital signals, and output the digital signals. A digital signal level adjusting device adjusts the levels of the digital signals with different second gains corresponding to respective inverses of the first gains, and generates the adjusted digital signals, which are then delayed and generated by a delay device. A switching device selects one of the digital signals generated from the delay device, based on the level of one digital signal selected from the digital signals generated from the plurality of analog-to-digital converters, and generates the selected one digital signal.
