Abstract
It is shown that for delta-sigma (ΣΔ) frequency-to-digital conversion (FDC) there is no need for a ΣΔ modulator, since a limited FM signal itself may be considered as an asynchronous ΣΔ bit-stream. By feeding the limited FM signal directly to a sinc2 ΣΔ decimator, a triangularly weighted zero-crossing counter FDC is introduced, providing ΣΔ noise shaping. The results measured confirm the theory
