چکیده

A new technique is proposed to eliminate the nonlinear error of a multibit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) used in a sigma-delta modulator where the solidity of multibit DAC against the clock jitter is reserved. By using dual quantization, this technique reduces the bit length of DAC to one bit and consequently eliminates its nonlinear error. A lowpass finite impulse response (FIR) filter with pseudo digital implementation is merged with this 1-bit DAC to improve its solidity against the clock jitter up to the conventional multibit DACs.

A reduced jitter-sensitivity clock generation technique for continuous-time ΣΔ modulators

A clock generation technique for reducing the clockjitter sensitivity of Switched current (SI) Return-to-Zero (RZ) DAC in CT ΣΔ modulators is presented in this paper. While realizing the clock-jitter insensitivity, this technique ensures that the feedback period can be utilized more efficiently so that the amplitude of feedback current can be reduced. The proposed technique employs simple digit...
