Abstract

A sigma delta modulator includes an integrator, a quantizer, a randomization circuit, and a digital to analog converter circuit. The integrator is configured to integrate an analog signal, in order to generate a first signal, in which the analog signal is a sum of an input signal and a second signal. The quantizer is coupled to the integrator and configured to quantize the first signal to generate a digital signal which has a plurality of bits. The randomization circuit is coupled to the quantizer, and is configured to randomize partial bits in the plurality of bits of the digital signal, in order to generate first control signals. The digital to analog converter (DAC) circuit is coupled to the quantizer and the randomization circuit, and is configured to generate the second signal according to the first control signals and remaining bits in the plurality of bits of the digital signal.
