Abstract:

A wide bandwidth continuous time ΣΔADC is widely used in the wireless communication field. A ΣΔADC with the 3 order 4bit modulator is designed with the 256MHz sampling frequency. In order to reduce the clock jitter, the nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) DAC feedback pulse is used. And the loop asynchronous problem is improved by introducing a half of clock cycle delay. Also how to reduce the effect of the DAC mismatch is discussed. A low voltage, low power, and high speed operational amplifier is designed with feedforward compensation technology. Finally, based on the 0.13μm technology, the SNDR is 62.5dB and DR is 71dB with a 1.2V supply.

Key words: analog to digital converter, continuous time, sigma delta analog to digital converter
