Abstract:
An analog-to-digital converter includes a first switch circuit, a first integrator, a second switch circuit, a second integrator, a quantizer and a digital-to-analog converter. The first switch circuit receives an external analog signal, outputs the analog signal in reverse phase, and outputs the analog signal in positive phase. The first integrator receives and integrates the analog signal with cross-coupling. The second switch circuit outputs an output of the first integrator and a common mode output potential of the first integrator. The second integrator samples and integrates an output of the second switch circuit. The quantizer single-bit-quantizes an output of the second integrator to provide the output as a digital signal output. The digital-to-analog converter receives an output of the quantizer and provides the output as an analog signal output. Each of the first and second integrators receives and integrates an output of the digital-to-analog converter with cross-coupling.
