Design of a Fourth-Order Sigma-Delta Modulator for Audio Application

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on requirements on high performance and high resolution of modulators, a fourth-order Sigma-Delta modulator for audio application is developed in this paper. The modulator is designed under the commercial 0.5μm CMOS process and the circuits are given simulations by Spectre. The sampling frequency of sigma-delta modulator is 11.264 MHz, and OSR is 256 within the 22 kHz signal bandwidth. Measure performance shows that Sigma-Delta modulator enables its maximum SNR to achieve 103.5dB, and the accuracy of Sigma-Delta modulator is up to 16 bit.
