ABSTRACT:
An oversampling converter of a type using a plural-order, plural-stage sigma-delta modulator, the output signal to the decimating filter of which modulator has the quantization noise contribution of a number of its plurality of stages suppressed therein, uses single-bit quantization in those stages to help avoid problems of nonlinearity. Each other sigma-delta converter stage, the quantization noise of which appears in substantial amount in the converter output signal to the decimating filter, uses quantization having multiple-bit resolution to help increase the resolution of the oversampling converter overall.
