| Abstract |
Tunable SC(Switched Capacitor) bandpass { Sigma}-δ(Sigma-Delta) modulator used in wireless system receiver occurs a signal attenuation according to tuning of center frequency in signal bandwidth. In this paper, tunable bandpass 4th order SC bandpass { Sigma}-δ modulator with novel structure is proposed for rejection of signal attenuation in signal bandwidth. The existing structure uses a ten variable coefficient values for rejection of signal reduction in the modulator. But the proposed structure only use a two variable coefficient values for rejection of signal attenuation in the modulator. Also, an adder and comparator is replaced with a comparator having 4 inputs in the modulator. Therefore, the existing structure has one more OP-AMP. The purposed modulator was designed in 0.18 μm CMOS technology. The resolution of the modulator within 310 kHz bandwidth and 40 MHz sampling frequency under 6.67 MHz, 10 MHz and 13.33 MHz intermediate frequency are over 10 bit. |
