Abstract
In this paper, a low power wide bandwidth second-order continuous-time (CT) delta-sigma (.DELTA..SIGMA.) modulator with single amplifier scheme is presented. For low power consideration, we design this continuous-time modulator by the architecture of single-loop with 3-bit quantize and use only one amplifier. This continuous-time delta-sigma modulator achieves a 2 MHz signal bandwidth at 128 MHz sampling frequency operation with 68dB of dynamic range and 67.3dB of peak signal-to-noisedistortion ratio (PSNDR). The circuit is implemented by the standard 0.18-.mu.m 1P6M CMOS technology. The core area is 0.23mm/sup 2/ (0.36mm*0.64mm) and the power consumption is only 2.3-mW with 1.8-V power supply.
