A 4th order bandpass sigma-delta modulator for ultrasound applications is presented. By cascading two second-order identical
Gm-C bandpass filters, a 4th-order modulator was designed with high power-efficiency, stability, tunability and programmability.
The modulator is dedicated for application with intermediate frequency of 3 MHz and bandwidth of 200 kHz. Implemented in a
standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology, the post-layout simulation of the modulator gives a dynamic range of 78 dB. Chip measurements
are reported after successfully tuning the modulator to operate at four-time of its folded specifications. The final SNR achieves
58 dB at 0.75 MHz with 50 kHz bandwidth. The modulator consumes 2.5 mW from 1.8 V power supply. Moreover, a programming method
is introduced and corresponding circuit is designed to change the central frequency of the modulator between 3 and 20 MHz
for scanning different regions of the body. However the 200 kHz bandwidth limits the modulator only for Dobbler mode applications,
the effective facilities of programmability are valuable property to expand this application to other wide band applications
in future.

This paper represents the low-power signal-delta (ΣΔ) modulator for wireless communication receiver applications. The 2nd-order
modulator has a single-loop structure with 11 quantization levels. An adaptive biasing scheme of the operational amplifier
and cascaded comparator scheme are proposed in order to save the power consumption. The DAC with three-level references including
the analog ground voltage can make the modulator be implemented with half of the input capacitances without degradation of
linearity characteristics with the help of dynamic element matching technique. Peak SNR values of 74 dB and 68 dB are achieved
with the input bandwidths of 615 kHz and 1.92 MHz for CDMA-2000 and WCDMA applications, respectively. The modulator is fabricated
in a 0.13-μm standard digital CMOS technology and dissipates 4.3 mA for a single supply voltage of 2.8 V.

This paper describes the design and experimental characterization of a 0.13 μm CMOS switched-capacitor reconfigurable cascade ΣΔ modulator intended for multi-standard GSM/Bluetooth/UMTS hand-held devices. Both architectural- and circuital-level reconfiguration strategies are incorporated in the chip in order to adapt the effective resolution and the output rate to different standard specifications with optimized power dissipation. This is achieved by properly combining different reconfiguration modes that include the variation in the order of the loop filter (3rd- or 4th-order), the clock frequency (40 or 80 MHz), the internal quantization (1 or 2 bits), and the bias currents of the amplifiers. The selection of the modulator topology and the design of its building blocks are based on a top-down CAD methodology that combines simulation and statistical optimization at different levels of the modulator hierarchy. Experimental measurements show a correct operation of the prototype for the three standards, featuring dynamic ranges of 83.8/75.9/58.7 dB and peak signal-to-(noise+distortion) ratios of 78.7/71.3/53.7 dB at 400 ksps/2/8 Msps, respectively. The modulator power consumption is 23.9/24.5/44.5 mW, of which 9.7/10/24.8 mW are dissipated in the analog circuitry. The multi-mode ΣΔ prototype shows an overall performance that is competitive with the current state of the art.1 相似文献

A fourth-order low-distortion low-pass sigma-delta (∑△) modulator is presented for micro-machined inertial sensors. The proposed single-loop single-bit feedback modulator is optimized with a feed-forward path to decrease the nonlinearities and power consumption. The IC is implemented in a standard 0.6 μm CMOS technology and operates at a sampling frequency of 3.846 MHz. The chip area is 2.12 mm^2 with 23 pads. The experimental results indicate a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 100 dB and dynamic range (DR) of 103 dB at an oversampling rate (OSR) of 128 with the input signal amplitude of-3.88 dBFS at 9.8 kHz; the power consumption is 15 raW at a 5 V supply. 相似文献

The next generation of cellular systems will be increasingly similar to a data communication system. Not only will it transfer
voice and multimedia data, it will also be integrated with WLAN to access Internet whenever possible. Thus these cellular
systems need highly integrated multi-standard receivers. The design of the A/D converter in such receivers is a big challenge.
A GSM/WCDMA/WLAN tri-mode receiver is first designed on the system level. A reconfigurable ΣΔ modulator, which is suitable
for GSM/WCDMA/WLAN receiver, is then proposed in this paper. According to the different signal bandwidth and Dynamic Range
(DR) specifications, this ΣΔ modulator is reconfigured to achieve the required dynamic range with less power consumption.
The prototype is implemented in TSMC 0.18-μm CMOS process with 1.8 V power supply. The circuit achieves signal-to-noise-and-distortion-ratio
of 82 dB for GSM, 75 dB for WCDMA and 58 dB for WLAN.

Traditional feedforward structures suffer from performance constraints caused by the complex adder before quantizer.This paper presents an improved 4th-order 1 -bit sigma-delta modulator which has a simple adder and delayed input feedforward to relax timing constraints and implement low-distortion.The modulator was fabricated in a 0.35μm CMOS process,and it achieved 92.8 dB SNDR and 101 dB DR with a signal bandwidth of 100 kHz dissipating 8.6 mW power from a 3.3-V supply.The performance satisfies the requirements of a GSM system. 相似文献

Mobile phones of the future will be the access terminals to many different types of service. This will mean that they must be able to reconfigure themselves to support the differing service requirements placed upon them. At the root of this ability to reconfigure must be components and architectures that allow such flexibility, and so the key objective of the work programme on terminals within the Virtual Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Personal Communications (Mobile VCE) has been the design, definition and performance evaluation of key components and architectures for future generation reconfigurable terminals 相似文献

This paper presents improvements in generation of wideband and high dynamic range analog signal for area-efficient MADBIST, especially for the on-chip testing of wireless communication IF digitizing sigma-delta modulator chip. Via increasing the order of the one-bit bandpass sigma-delta modulation algorithm up to 12 and using finite repetitious bitstream approximating scheme, it can achieve great improvements in signal bandwidth instead of purity at the cost of very little hardware overhead. Another contribution in this work is to provide the theoretical analysis of the reconstructed signal degradation due to harmonic distortion and clock jitter. Such on-chip analog stimulus generation scheme is especially fit for IF digitizing bandpass sigma-delta modulator chip's production-time testing and in-the-field diagnostics. The technique can also be extended to mixed-signal communication SoC built-in-self-test. 相似文献

This work presents a means to enhance the immunity of non-ideal opamp gain effect of the fourth order multi-stage noise shaped
(MASH) sigma-delta modulator (SDM) for wide bandwidth applications. The first stage of the SDM is a low-distortion single-loop
second order SDM, while the second stage is a low-distortion interpolative second order SDM with Chebyshev type II filter
technique. Theoretically, the conventional MASH SDM is impacted by the nonlinear finite gain of the operational amplifier.
This impact may have two main phenomena. First, it leaks the incompletely corrected quantization error to the output. Secondly,
the nonlinearity causes the harmonic distortion of the input signal. The proposed architecture can reduce the distortion and
the sensitivity of the nonlinear finite opamp gain to improve the performance by using low-distortion technique in the MASH
SDM. Furthermore, the lower power budget and simplified digital cancellation logic can be achieved. The experimental results
indicate that the dynamic range (DR) can reach 87dB with power dissipation of 65 mW. A test SDM chip for Asymmetric Digital
Subscriber Line (ADSL) application is designed and implemented by TSMC 0.25 um 1P5M process.

In order to perform an on-chip test for characterizing both static and transmission parameters of embedded analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs), this paper presents an oscillator-based reconfigurable sinusoidal signal generator which can produce both
high and low frequency sinusoidal signals by switching the oscillator into different modes. Analog and digital signals can
additionally be produced concurrently in both modes to provide not only test stimuli, but also reference responses for the
ADC built-in self-test. The generated oscillation signal amplitude and frequency can be easily and precisely controlled by
simply setting the oscillator clock frequency and initial condition coefficients. Except for a 1-bit digital-to-analog converter
and smoothing filter, this proposed generator is constructed entirely by digital circuits, and hence easily integrates this
silicon function and verifies itself before testing the ADCs.

Although some papers have qualitatively analyzed the effect of charge pump mismatch on phase noise and spurs in sigma-delta
fractional-N frequency synthesizer, few of them have addressed this topic quantitatively. An analytical model is proposed
in this paper to describe the behavior of charge pump mismatch and the corresponding phase noise. Numerical simulation shows
that this model is of high accuracy and can be applied to the analysis of in-band phase induced by the charge pump mismatch
in sigma-delta fractional-N PLL frequency synthesizer. Most importantly, this model discloses that 6 dB reduction of in-band
phase noise due to charge pump mismatch can be achieved by halving the charge pump mismatch ratio. After studying the typical
topologies of sigma-delta modulators (SDM), we proposed some strategies on the selection of SDM in frequency synthesizer design.
Our analytical model also indicates that eliminating the charge pump mismatch is one major path towards the in-band phase
noise reduction of the sigma-delta frequency synthesizer.

A synthesis tool consisting of coefficient synthesis of architecture, circuit specifications synthesis, and CMOS operational-amplifier (op-amp) synthesis for discrete-time sigma-delta modulators (SDMs) is presented. In circuit specifications synthesis, several major circuit non-idealities are discussed and modeled. A precise performance prediction with a new design flow of specification synthesis is proposed. A hybrid design methodology composed of equation-based and simulation-based approaches for synthesizing fully differential two-stage and folded-cascode op-amps in technology is also presented. Experimental results show that the peak signal-to-noise and distortion ratio (PSNDR) of the fourth-order feed-forward (FF) SDM with an oversampling ratio (OSR) of 64 and a bandwidth of 20 KHz estimated by the proposed synthesis tool is 94.19 dB, and the result of the circuit simulation with folded-cascode op-amp is 93.03 dB. The estimated PSNDR of the third-order multiple-feedback (MF) SDM with an OSR of 32 and a bandwidth of 256 KHz is 59.52 dB, and the HSPICE simulation result is 55.39 dB. 相似文献
