Delta-sigma (ΔΣ) converters may sound complex, but at their core, they are all about precision. In this post, we will peel back the layers and uncover the fundamentals behind their elegant design. At ...

Abstract: In many sensor applications, a high-resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is a key block. The use of an incremental delta-sigma ADC (IADC) is often well suited for such applications.

Based on the amount of e-mail I received after Part 3 of this series (Nov. 7, 2008, p. 18; www.electronicdesign.com, ED Online 19948), many of you have already guessed that an incremental integrator ...

A lower-cost offering, the CS5530, has been added to Cirrus Logic's CS5531/32/33/34 family of integrated delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The CS5530 offers the same low-noise ...

Assuming that you are familiar with the fundamental specifications of an ADC and what they mean, the next step is to know your entire signal chain well and then work to fit the ADC to the requirements ...

Analog techniques have dominated signal processing for years, but digital techniques are slowly encroaching into this domain. The design of delta-sigma (ΔΣ) analog-todigital converters (ADCs) is ...
