ABSTRACT:
Sigma-delta modulation is provided, comprising feeding an input signal to a first SDM, subtracting the output of the first SDM from the input signal, filtering the output of the subtracting to obtain a filtered signal, delaying the input signal, adding the filtered signal to the delayed signal, feeding the output of the adder to a second SDM and providing the output of the second SDM. The first SDM in combination with the subtracting and filtering delivers a correction signal which, by adding it to the input signal, reduces the distortion in the second SDM, which second SDM performs in fact the sigma-delta modulation of the device.
