Title: Tien-Yu Lo: Innovator in Delta-Sigma Modulation Technology
Introduction
Tien-Yu Lo is a prominent inventor based in Hsinchu, Taiwan. He has made significant contributions to the field of electronics, particularly in the development of delta-sigma modulators and analog-to-digital converters. With a total of 10 patents to his name, Lo continues to push the boundaries of innovation in his field.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a delta-sigma modulator with truncation error compensation and associated method. This invention includes a first combining circuit, a loop filter circuit, a quantizer circuit, a truncator circuit, a first digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit, and a compensation circuit. The first combining circuit generates a first analog signal by combining an analog feedback signal and an analog input signal. The loop filter circuit generates a loop-filtered signal according to the first analog signal. The quantizer circuit outputs a first digital signal that indicates a digital combination result of at least a truncation error compensation signal and the loop-filtered signal. The truncator circuit performs truncation upon the first digital signal to generate a second digital signal. The first DAC circuit generates the analog feedback signal according to the second digital signal. The compensation circuit generates the truncation error compensation signal based on a truncation error resulting from truncation performed upon the first digital signal.
Another notable invention is an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) capable of generating a digital output signal with different bits. This ADC receives at least an input signal to generate a digital output signal. It includes an input terminal and multiple output terminals, where the input terminal receives the input signal, and each output terminal is configured to output one bit of the digital output signal. The ADC can operate in either a normal mode or a low power mode. In normal mode, all output terminals are enabled to output bits to form the digital output signal. In low power mode, only a portion of the output terminals are enabled to output bits.
