  • Abstract
    The paper presents a VHDL-AMS based approach to the Switched-Current (SI) Sigma-Delta Modulator design. EDA tools are presented, which translate the prototype VHDL-AMS description into SI realization. Another tool helps the designer to create the layout. The paper also describes a new proposed current mode comparator, which is used in the design. Postlayout simulation results are presented.
