摘要
A Sigma-Delta (Sigma Delta) modulator with 8 bits of resolution and only 330 nW power consumption for a cardiac pacemaker is presented. The overall modulator operates from 2.3V down to 1.5V supply using fully-differential class AB/AB amplifiers with transistors biased in weak inversion. The system has been implemented in a standard 0.5-mu m CMOS process. Post-layout simulations have been performed showing 57 dB of SNR with an oversampling ratio of 32.
