Abstract
Modern high performance radio systems increasingly rely on digital signal processing techniques. In many cases performance is limited by the A-D conversion process, particularly where high linearity is required. In this paper three examples are presented of bandpass sigma-delta A-D converters which offer a cost effective means of encoding narrowband IF signals to a high linearity and with low spurious content.
