ABSTRACT:
The idle-channel noise of a delta modulator is controlled by controlling the relative step size imbalance, 0. The instantaneous magnitude of the delta modulator output signal is converted to a multibit word and a second multibit word, representing a predetermined number, N, is subtracted therefrom. The dc component of the difference word is converted to analog form, amplified and inverted, and fed back to the delta modulator input stage. As a result, .theta. .apprxeq. -N. The delta modulated signal may be converted to a pulse-code modulated (PCM) signal using a digital integrator having a leak, .beta., in which case .theta. .apprxeq. -.beta.N. At the same time, the dc component of the PCM signal is advantageously reduced substantially to zero.
