            Abstract : 
A 3rd-order single-loop CT DeltaSigma modulator with a 4b internal quantizer operating at 640MHz achieves 76dB SNR, -78dB THD, and 74dB SINAD in a 20MHz signal bandwidth with an OSR of 16. The modulator operates between 20 to 40MS/S output data rate and dissipates 20mW from a 1.2V supply at 40MS/S. The degradation of stability due to excess loop delay is solved with a quantizer feedback architecture
