Abstract

In this paper, two high-resolution medium-bandwidth single-loop 4^th-order single-bit sigma-delta modulators using a feed-forward and a feedback topology respectively are implemented in 0.13μm CMOS technology. The oversampling ratio is 50 with 312.5kHz input bandwidth, 14.66-bit and 16.62-bit resolution have been reached. The two circuits each consume about 8-mW from a single 1.2V supply voltage. After simulation, under the same circuit conditions, feedback structure gives better performance than feed-forward one. The experiment result could be a useful reference for the topology choice.
