Abstract

In Jung et al. (Electron Lett 48(10):557–558, 1), a double noise coupling scheme was proposed for ΔΣ analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to achieve wideband and high accuracy performance combined with low power consumption. In this paper, an improved version of double noise coupling ΔΣ ADC is presented. The improved architecture reduces the power consumption significantly, by reducing the output swing of the second integrator in the modulator. Also, the improved double noise coupling ΔΣ ADC relaxes the feedback timing of the modulator using a triple sampling technique (Kanazawa et al. in IEEE Custom Integrated Circuit Conference, 2). Thus, there is no need to have high-speed comparator and DEM circuitry even for high-speed applications. By using both techniques, the performance of the double noise coupling ΔΣ ADC can be improved significantly.
