  • Abstract
    The proposed scheme relates to techniques called “local nonlinear feedback loop (LNFL)” and “enhanced-LNFL” for stabilization of oversampling sigma-delta modulators. SDM stabilized by LNFL or enhanced-LNFL techniques avoids the instability limitation without SNR degradation. Besides, both proposed approaches to suppress the signal´s swing range can be applied to various configurations of SDMs, such as multiple-loop and single-loop structures, for high stability and low power VLSI applications
