  • Abstract
    This brief addresses some practical issues on the implementation of the input-feedforward delta-sigma modulators. First, the timing constraint imposed by the input-feedforward path is identified and a possible method to relax the constraint is proposed. Second, the drawbacks of the analog adder needed before the quantizer are explained and a method to eliminate the adder is proposed
