ABSTRACT:
A sigma delta modulator includes a modulator module that includes a quantizer with variable hysteresis, which receives an input signal to perform necessary modulation operations. A non-linear mapping module receives a signal associated with said input signal and tabulates the necessary hysteresis control information so as to reduce the transition rate of the modulator module.
