Abstract

A novel closed-loop voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO)-based 1-1 sturdy multistage noise-shaping (SMASH) continuous-time ΔΣ ADC is presented in this paper. The proposed architecture uses VCOs as integrators and puts them in a closed loop to suppress the VCO nonlinearity. The multi-bit quantization is employed in the proposed architecture so that the requirement of a high over-sampling ratio (OSR) is relaxed while maintaining a high resolution. The architecture has been verified in MATLAB Simulink.
