摘要
A modified architecture of the second-order switched-capacitor modulator is proposed. A simple four-transistor variable gain attenuator is included in the architecture which continuously adjusts the reference voltage of the quantizer feedback. This improves the output SNR for small signal input and reduces the harmonic distortion for large signal input. Simulation results show that it achieves higher dynamic range and lower harmonic distortions compared with the traditional architecture.
