Abstract
A 5/sup th/-order single-loop /spl Sigma/-/spl Delta/ modulator has been implemented in a 0.25 /spl mu/m digital CMOS process, where the supply voltage is only 2.5 V and the capacitor option is not available. A tri-level quantizer is used to improve loop stability. The sampling frequency of the modulator is 80 MHz and the oversampling ratio is 32. Measured over a 1 MHz signal bandwidth, dynamic range is 86 dB, peak SNR is 80 dB and peak SNDR is 78 dB. The modulator consumes only 50 mW.
