Abstract

This chapter starts with a brief explanation of the operation of an ideal single-loop continuous-time delta-sigma (CTΔΣ) modulator and describes its major building blocks, i.e. the loop filter, quantizer and digital-to-analog converter (DAC). In Sect. 2.2, we introduce the system-level non-idealities that limit the performance of such a modulator. Finally, we will illustrate the effect of system-level non-idealities on the key performance metrics of the modulator: its signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR), and sampling speed (f s ).
