  • Abstract
    The basic electric tradeoffs encountered in the design of switched-capacitor delta-sigma A/D converters are examined. Essential analog circuitry in switched-capacitor delta-sigma A/D converters and a representative circuit model are discussed. Simple bounds relating signal-to-noise ratio, time constants, capacitor size, and transistor feature size are developed. Delta-sigma system theory is incorporated with these results
