Abstract
Traditional feedforward structures suffer from performance constraints caused by the complex adder before quantizer. This paper presents an improved 4th-order 1-bit sigma-delta modulator which has a simple adder and delayed input feedforward to relax timing constraints and implement low-distortion. The modulator was fabricated in a 0.35 μm CMOS process, and it achieved 92.8 dB SNDR and 101 dB DR with a signal bandwidth of 100 kHz dissipating 8.6 mW power from a 3.3-V supply. The performance satisfies the requirements of a GSM system.
