Abstract
A sigma delta modulator comprises an input configured to receive an input analog signal; a summing junction configured to subtract a feedback analog signal from the input analog signal; a first stage including a low pass filter coupled to the summing junction, wherein the low pass filter is configured to generate a first filtered signal; a second stage coupled to the low pass filter, configured to generate a second filtered signal by an active filter; a back-end stage coupled to the second stage, wherein the back-end stage comprises an analog to digital converter configured to convert the 2filtered signal to a digital output signal by sampling at a predetermined sampling frequency (fs); and a feedback path for routing the digital output signal to the summing junction, wherein the feedback path comprises a digital to analog converters, DAC, converting the digital output signal to the feedback analog signal.
