Abstract :
A two-channel time-interleaved second-order sigma-delta modulator for broadband applications including asymmetrical digital subscriber line (ADSL) is presented. The proposed two-channel SigmaDelta modulator uses a single integrator channel which does not require additional active elements for the quantizer input generation, since the integrator outputs are directly used as the input of the quantizers. As a result, the entire modulator can be implemented using only two op-amps, which is beneficial for both power consumption and area. Furthermore, this architecture is robust to channel mismatch effects and can operate with a simple clocking scheme. The SigmaDelta modulator achieves a dynamic range of 85 dB over a 1.1-MHz signal bandwidth with an effective clock frequency of 132 MHz. The circuit is implemented in 0.18-mum CMOS technology using metal-insulator-metal capacitors. The total power consumption of the SigmaDelta modulator is 5.4mW from a 1.8-V supply and occupies an active area of 1.1 mm2
