Abstract
A series-connected delta-sigma modulator (DSM) comprises a first DSM, configured to receive an input signal, comprising a first loop filter, configured to generate a first processed signal; and a first quantizer, coupled to the first loop filter, configured to generate a first quantized signal, and to feed back the first quantized signal to the first loop filter, wherein the first quantized signal comprises a clipping error smaller than a first predetermined value; and a second DSM, coupled to the first DSM, configured to receive the first quantized signal from the first DSM, comprising a second loop filter, configured to generate a second processed signal; and a second quantizer, coupled to the second loop filter, configured to generate a second quantized signal, and to feed back the second quantized signal to the second loop filter, wherein the second quantized signal comprises a quantization error smaller than a second predetermined value.
