Abstract

Oversampling converters, initially used for audio-band and highresolution applications, are now widely used in systems requiring video-band and medium-resolution. The technique, as we shall study, benefits from both noise-shaping and oversampling to give an optimum trade-off between speed and resolution. This chapter recalls the basic principles of the oversampling method and discusses first and second order architectures providing the basis for the study, made in the next chapter, of high order sigma-delta architectures, continuous-time solutions and sigma-delta DAC.
