2. index filter design of Σ-Δ ADC filter design of incremental Σ-Δ ADC difference between the two filters

3. filter design of Σ-Δ ADC • Σ-Δ ADCs are widely used in telecommunication and multimedia applications. • The key property of Σ-Δ ADC • ①to achieve high resolution do not rely on precisely matched analog elements • ②rely on oversampling, noise-shaping and digital post-filtering. • ③can be integrated well into today’s fine line-width CMOS technologies.

4. filter design of Σ-Δ ADC • Modulators of Σ-Δ ADC push the noise from low frequency rate to high frequency rate. So to achieve high resolution, the key point of Σ-Δ ADC is its digit filter’s suppression of high frequency. • The function of the filter are as follow: • ①filtering • ②decimating • ③coding • There is some parameters • for Σ-Δ ADC filter: • ①decimating rate(D) • ②bandwidth • ③SNR

6. Filter architecture CIC filter FIR filter(half band filter)

7. Introduction to incremental Σ-Δ ADC • Unfortunately, these classical ΣΔ structures are not well suited for instrumentation and measurement (DC) applications. • Require: • ①very high absolute accuracy and linearity • ②high dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio • ③Hertz wide bandwidth(nearly DC input)

9. Filter design for IDC 3 Typical structure of decimation filter • CoI filter • Sinc filter(CIC) • Optimal filter Line frequency noise • S/H and the error of S/H • Periodic noise suppression digit filter Canceling periodic noise
