Abstract :
A unified strategy for simulating systems with oversampling A/D converters is discussed. Experimental results are presented to verify that high-level modulator models capture the behavior of the analog circuits providing fast and accurate simulations. These results have been incorporated using a variety of simulation tools to aid in the design and verification of complex chip designs
