Abstract

A correction method and a correction circuit for a sigma-delta modulator (SDM) are provided. The SDM includes a loop filter, a quantizer, and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The correction method includes: generating a test signal for a frequency to be tested; inputting the test signal to a feedforward circuit that includes at least one adjustable impedance circuit, the test signal being inputted to the SDM through the impedance circuit; calculating an output signal of the SDM to obtain a value of a signal transfer function (STF) of the SDM at the frequency to be tested; and adjusting the impedance circuit.
