Delta-Sigma Modulator Using a Resonant-Tunneling Diode Quantizer
Summary :
A novel delta-sigma modulator that utilizes a resonant-tunneling diode (RTD) quantizer is proposed and its operation is investigated by HSPICE simulations. In order to eliminate the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SINAD) degradation caused from the poor isolation of a single-stage quantizer (1SQ), a three-stage quantizer (3SQ), which consists of three cascoded RTD quantizers, is introduced. At a sample rate of 10 Gsps (samples per a second) and a signal bandwidth of 40 MHz (oversampling ratio of 128), the modulator demonstrates a SINAD of 56 dB, which corresponds to the effective number of bits of 9.3.
