Description
Development of high-temperature electronic devices is an important problem. Currently, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) based on delta-sigma modulators are widely used. Such ADCs have low power consumption with a sufficient number of output bits.
The high-temperature low-power delta-sigma ADC consists of two parts. The first one is a switched-capacitor low-pass filter and a delta-sigma modulator. The second part is a digital filter for decimation of the modulator output. The ADC is designed for 10 MHz clock frequency and a passband of 100 kHz. The X-FAB SOI CMOS technology is employed.
The ADC provides 11-bit effective resolution and consumes 37 mW from 5 V power supply. The 5th order low-pass filter has a balanced structure. The 2nd order delta-sigma modulator utilizes a 2-bit quantizer. The digital filter decimates the output code of the modulator by 48 times.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”17800″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=”element_from_left”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]
Why EUROPRACTICE?
Our University has been using EUROPRACTICE initiatives since 2005. The EUROPRACTICE service offers affordable prototyping for research. EUROPRACTICE offers very frequent access to fabrication in different kind of technologies. Also, EUROPRACTICE staff offers excellent technical support regarding technology PDK and general guidance regarding the design of the devices. The EUROPRACTICE service is always open to questions and suggestions related to delivery and billing.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vckit_button style=”wayra” title=”More about this Project” radius_size=”none” custom_class=”vckit_custom_class_85e85fff8aad4c” tutorial=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Feuropractice-ic.proyectanda.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F02%2FEP-activity-Report-2019.pdf%23page%3D40||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
