Abstract

An area-efficient high-linearity MOSFET-only σ Δ modulator using depletion-mode MOS-capacitors in combined series and parallel compensation technique is presented. The new approach joins the advantages of the series and parallel compensation of depletion-mode MOS-capacitors, achieving an optimum of linearity and area efficiency. The 2nd-order fully-differential MOSFET-Only σ Δ modulator was implemented in a standard 0.25 μm n-well digital CMOS process without extra layers for capacitors. The circuit operates at 1.8 V supply voltage, consumes 1 mW and achieves a SNR of 77 dB and a SNDR of 71 dB at a signal bandwidth of 8 kHz. The occupied core area is 0.06 mm 2.
