Testing and characterization of the one-bit first-order delta-sigma modulator for on-chip analog signal analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Delta-sigma modulation has become popular in modern analog-to-digital (AD) modulator design due to their relatively high immunity to process variations. In this paper, we propose efficient characterization techniques to obtain the key performance parameters of the 1-bit first-order deltasigma modulator which is intended to be used as an on-chip analog signal digitizer for BIST (built-in self-test) applications. Numerical simulations are performed to validate the techniques and accurate estimation of the parameters can be obtained at the presence of noise.

Time-Mode Signal Quantization for Use in Sigma-Delta Modulators
The rapid scaling in modern CMOS technology has motivated the researchers to design new analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architectures that can properly work in lower supply voltage. An exchanging the data quantization procedure from the amplitude to the time domain, can be a promising alternative well adapt with the technology scaling. This paper is going to review the recent development in t...
متن کاملMixed-Signal Hardware Security: Attacks and Countermeasures for Delta-Sigma ADC
Mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs) play an eminent and critical role in design and development of the embedded systems leveraged within smart weapons and military systems. These ICs can be a golden target for adversaries to compromise in order to function maliciously. In this work, we study the security aspects of a tunnel field effect transistor (TFET)-based first-order one-bit delta-sigma...
متن کاملDelta-Sigma Modulators using Frequency- Modulated Intermediate Values
This paper describes a new firstand second-order delta-sigma modulator concept where the first integrator is extracted and implemented by a frequency modulator with the modulating signal as the input. The result is a simple delta-sigma modulator with no need for digital-to-analog converters, allowing straight-forward multi-bit quantization. Without the frequency modulator, the circuit becomes a...
متن کاملSinusoidal Signal Generator for ADC Testing in Mixed- Signal SOC
Sinusoidal signal can be used as stimulus to test static and dynamic parameters of ADC. A sigma-delta modulation based sinusoidal signal generator for ADC testing in SOC was introduced. The generator was built on the same chip with ADC. A numerical resonator generated a sinusoidal signal which was converted to a single bit stream by a sigma-delta modulator. Due to oversampling, the quantization...
متن کاملAdaptive Delta-Sigma Modulation for Enhanced Input Dynamic Range
An adaptive delta-sigma modulator of 1st order with one-bit quantization is presented. Adaptation is instantaneous and based on an exponential law. The feedback signal is a multibit discrete-level signal generated by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Compared to a nonadaptive delta-sigma modulator of 1st order, the input dynamic range is significantly enhanced. The gain in dynamic range is 6...
