ABSTRACT:
A differential delta-sigma modulator of switched-capacitance type is operated with a three-phase cycle, rather than the two-phase cycle of the prior art. In the first phase of operation the switched capacitors are charged in accordance with the previous single-bit output of the modulator. Structural modifications permit the switching capacitors to be connected in series to receive the modulator input voltage during the second phase of operation so that voltage need not be balanced with regard to any specified common-mode potential. In the third phase of operation the switched capacitors discharge from first plates thereof to the differential-input integrator while the second plates thereof are driven in accordance with the previous single-bit output of the modulator.
