Abstract :
This paper presents a high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) second-order Delta-Sigma modulator in which the delay accumulator in traditional structure is replaced by Al-Alaoui integrator. The SNR expression of new structure is obtained through frequency domain analysis on noise transfer function. The experimental results reveal that its performance overcomes that of conventional one with lower quantization noise and 6.5% higher SNR.
