    Abstract: The stability of a delta-sigma modulator may be improved by limiting a value within the delta-sigma modulator. For example, the value provided to a quantizer may be limited, by a limiter circuit in the delta-sigma modulator, to a value within a single step range of the quantizer. The limiter circuit may be placed in an inner loop of the delta-sigma modulator to decouple the stability of the inner loop from an outer loop. For example, a delta-sigma modulator may be constructed with an inner loop having a sixth order and an outer loop having a second order, in which the stability of the delta-sigma modulator is proportional to that of a second order.

    Abstract: A system and method is provided for stabilizing high order sigma delta modulators. The system includes an integrator having a limiter in the feedback path of the integrator. The integrator combines an input signal with a feedback signal generated by the limiter to produce an integrated output signal. The output signal is output to the next component of the sigma delta modulator. In addition, the output signal is fed back through the limiter. When an output signal received in the feedback path by the limiter exceeds the threshold value of the limiter, the limiter is activated and clamps the output signal to produce a limited signal. The limited signal is combined with the input signal to the integrator to produce the output signal.

    Abstract: An analog-digital converter includes a .DELTA..SIGMA. modulator, a digital filter, a high-pass filter and a multiplier which are connected in series. Analog input is converted into serial-bit strings by the .DELTA..SIGMA. modulator, for which gain `1/A` is set. The digital filter extracts low-frequency components, corresponding to the analog input, from the serial-bit strings, so the low-frequency components are converted into parallel-bit digital data. The high-pass filter removes DC offset component from output of the digital filter; and then, output thereof is multiplied by scaling gain `A` by the multiplier so that digital output is produced. The .DELTA..SIGMA. modulator includes at least three switched-capacitor integrators and a one-bit quantizer, which are connected in series, as well as a one-sample delay circuit. One-bit output, produced by the one-bit quantizer, is delayed by the one-sample delay circuit, whose output is delivered to each switched-capacitor integrator. Each switched-capacitor integrator is configured using a CMOS differential amplifier which is configured by a CMOS operational amplifier and at least one amplitude-limiting circuit. The amplitude-limiting circuit is configured by two PMOS transistors and two NMOS transistors which are connected in parallel in a diode-connection manner; and this circuit is provided to limit amplitude in output of the CMOS differential amplifier by stabilizing its operating point.
