Abstract:
The circuit includes, upstream from a PWM quantizer, that is between the output of the sigma-delta modulator and the input of the PWM or PWM-like quantizer, a second or ancillary sigma-delta stage of any order and architecture, with the function of controlling the minimum dynamic of the sigma-delta modulator. This second sigma-delta stage is input with the output signal of the sigma-delta modulator summed to a signal corresponding to the difference between the input signal and the output signal of the second sigma-delta stage, delayed by a delay block.
