Patent attributes
To provide a method of controlling a delta-sigma modulator and a delta-sigma modulator capable of suppressing a consumption power and also improving a signal-to-noise ratio by implementing both the zero-point shifting technology and the double sampling technology simultaneously, a delta-sigma modulator includes a first integrator (1), a second integrator (2), a third integrator (3), a local feedback (4), delay units (5), a quantizer (6), a DA converter (7), gains (8a to 8c) of the DA converter, gains (9a to 9c) of the integrators, adders (10), no-delay integrators (11) each having a gain “1”, a gain (12) of the local feedback, a DAC (13) of a gain “1”, a delay unit (5) for delaying output signals of the DA converter (7), and a delay unit (5) for delaying an output signal of the local feedback (4).
