Title:
DELTA SIGMA MODULATOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3845505
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate noise included in an input 1-bit signal without increasing a degree number by allowing the modulator to have a middle stage mixing means and a final stage mixing means in addition to a quantization means and a 1st stage mixing means that obtains an integration value of sums of a product between an input 1-bit signal and a coefficient and a product between an output signal and a coefficient.
SOLUTION: A mixer section of the 1st stage of the modulator has an integration device consisting of an adder 131 and a delay circuit 141. A one-bit coefficient multiplier 121(161) multiplies a coefficient a(A) in p-bit with a 1-bit signal. Each mixer section in the middle stage has an integration device consisting of an adder 132(133) and a delay circuit 142(143). The adder 132(133) adds an output of the delay circuit 142(143) of the preceding state, that is, the integral value of the preceding stage to each output of the 1-bit coefficient multiplier. The final stage is provided with a one-bit coefficient multiplier 124 connecting to an input terminal 11 and adder 134 that adds an output of the one-bit coefficient multiplier 124 and an output of the delay circuit 143.
