Recap Dither successfully removes in-band tones that would corrupt the signal The high-frequency tones in the quantization noise spectrum will be removed by the digital filter following the modulator What if some of these strong tones are demodulated to the base-band prior to digital filtering?

V ref Interference via Modulation Simulations performed to verify the effect of the DAC reference contamination via output signal interference particularly in the vicinity of f s /2 Interference modulates the high-frequency tones Since the high frequency tones are strong, a small amount (1μV) of interference suffice to create audible base-band tones Stronger interference (1mV) not only aliases spurious tones but elevate noise floor by aliasing high frequency quantization noise Amplitude of modulated tones is proportional to interference The velocity of modulated tones is half that of the native tones Such differences help debugging of silicon How clean does the reference have to be?

Page 11 Modeling ΣΔ Nonlinearities Many component nonlinearities contribute errors Important to identify the ones which incur significant errors and analyze those only Unnecessarily complex models reduce the chance to find relevant problems, and perhaps, solutions As with all nonidealities, model one at a time Expect errors from the 2 nd integrator to be reduced by the gain of the 1 st integrator Errors further downstream are even less significant EECS 247 Lecture 27: Oversampled ADCs Cont'd & Final Remarks 2005 H.

Effect of Circuit Non-Idealities In principle, the digital filter removes out-of-band tones Except their distortion components falling in the baseband, caused by nonlinearities in the modulator loop filter Except components that are mixed down to baseband due to noise in the DAC reference Nonlinearities in the 1 st integrator amplifier are important Other source of nonlinearity Feedback capacitor non-linearity Switch induced distortion Including those in the model is left as an exercise Effect of 3 rd order non-linearities good exercise!
