Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuits, in particular to a virtual second-order delta-sigma modulator circuit based on a differential difference amplifier.
Background
An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is a key for connecting the analog domain and the digital domain and mainly comprises a modulator and a down-sampling decimation filter. The delta-sigma modulator has oversampling and noise shaping characteristics, and is mainly applied to the fields of low speed and high precision, such as high-quality audio equipment, precision instrument equipment, sensor interfaces, biological signal measurement and the like. The power consumption of the delta-sigma modulator mainly comes from the amplifier module in each stage of the integrator, and the large power consumption means a larger area.
Fig. 1 shows a conventional second-order switched capacitor delta-sigma modulator circuit, which is composed of two operational amplifiers a1, a2, sampling capacitors C1, C2, C5, C6, integrating capacitors C3, C4, C7, C8, feedback capacitors C9, C10, C11, C12, switches S1 to S36, and a comparator. C1-C2-Cs 1, C3-C4-Ci 1, C5-C6-Cs 2, C7-C8-Ci 2, C9-C10-Cfb 1, and C11-C12-Cfb 2. The circuit signal includes: the differential signal Vip and Vin are input, the feedback reference signal is Vrefp, Vrefn, Vrefp is equal to a power supply voltage, Vrefn is equal to a ground voltage, the common mode signal is VCM and is equal to one half of the power supply voltage, the two-phase nonoverlapping clock control signal is clk1, clk1d, clk2, clk2d (frequency is Fs and duty ratio is 50%), the feedback clock signal is clk1n, clk1p, and the digital output signal is Dop and Don. The input clock mainly controls the working state of the circuit, the feedback clock signal is realized by output signals Dop, Don and a clock signal clk1 through a certain logic relationship, when the signal is high, the switch is in a connected state, and when the signal is low, the switch is in an disconnected state.
The clock timing relationship of fig. 2 and the circuit connection relationship of fig. 1 show that:
when clk1, clk1d are high and clk2, clk2d are low, the input signal Vip is sampled by the sampling capacitor C1, and the charge of the sampling capacitor C1 may be represented as QC1,clk1Cs1(Vip-VCM), when clk2, clk2d are high and clk1, clk1d are low, the charge of sampling capacitor C1 may be represented as QC1,clk2Cs1(VCM-VCM), the charge transferred from the sampling capacitor C1 to the integrating capacitor C3 is therefore Δ Q — QC1,clk1-QC1,clk2Thus, the voltage variation at the Vop terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000021
Similarly, the voltage variation at Von terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000022
Thus, the differential output voltage variation of the first stage integrator can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000023
After the sampling capacitor C1 of the first stage integrator transfers charges to the integrating capacitor C3, when clk1, clk1d are high and clk2, clk2d are low, the sampling capacitor C5 samples the output signal Vop of the first stage integrator, and the charge of the sampling capacitor C5 can be represented as Q5C5,clk1Cs2 (Vop-VCM); when clk2, clk2d are high and clk1, clk1d are low, the charge on C5 on the sampling capacitance may be represented as QC5,clk2Cs2(VCM-VCM), the charge transferred from the sampling capacitor C5 to the integrating capacitor C7 is therefore Δ Q — QC5,clk1-QC5,clk2The voltage variation at Vop1 terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000024
Similarly, the voltage variation of the available Von1 terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000025
Thus, the differential output voltage variation of the second stage integrator can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000031
The comparator compares the output signals (Vop1, Von1) of the second-stage integrator, outputs digital signals and drives the feedback clock to feed back. To achieve higher accuracy, the capacitance needs to be increased to reduce noise, but the amplifier needs to consume more power to drive the capacitance.

The difference between the circuit of the invention and the circuit of the background art is that:
(1) compared with the circuit in the prior art, the circuit adopts an amplifier multiplexing technology to realize the circuit structure of the second-order modulator of a single amplifier.
(2) The invention adopts the differential difference amplifier to replace the traditional amplifier in the amplifier multiplexing circuit, and realizes the high-resolution second-order modulator structure through a certain logic control relation.
From the clock timing relationship of fig. 4 and the circuit connection relationship of fig. 3, it can be seen that:
when clk1, clk1d are high and clk2, clk2d are low, the input signal Vip is sampled by the sampling capacitor C1, and the charge on the sampling capacitor C1 may be represented as QC1,clk1When clk2, clk2d are high and clk1, clk1d are low, the charge on the sampling capacitor C1 may be represented as Q1 (Vip-VCM)C1,clk2Cs1(VCM-VCM), the charge C3 transferred from the sampling capacitor C1 to the integrating capacitor is therefore Δ Q — QC1,clk1-QC1,clk2Therefore, the voltage variation at the Vop1 terminal can be tabulatedShown as
Figure BDA0003252579880000101
Similarly, the voltage variation at Von1 terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000102
Thus, the differential output voltage variation of the first stage integrator can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000103
While the first stage integrator sampling capacitor C1 is transferring charge to the integrating capacitor C3, the second stage integrator sampling capacitor C5 samples the output of the first stage integrator, so when clk2, clk2d are high and clk1, clk1d are low, the charge on the sampling capacitor C5 can be represented as QC5,clk2Cs2(Vop 1-VCM). When clk1, clk1d are high and clk2, clk2d are low, the charge on the sampling capacitor C5 may be represented as QC5,clk1Cs2 (VCM-VCM). Therefore, the charge transferred from the sampling capacitor C5 to the integrating capacitor C7 is Δ Q ═ QC5,clk2-QC5,clk1The voltage variation at Vop2 terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000104
Similarly, the voltage variation at Von2 terminal can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000105
Thus, the differential output voltage variation of the second stage integrator can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003252579880000106
The comparator compares the second stage integrator differential output signals (Vop2, Von2), outputs digital signals and drives the feedback clock for feedback. Therefore, under the control of a simple two-phase non-overlapping clock, the working logic of the circuit is adjusted, and the function of a second-order integrator can be realized by only using one operational amplifier.
As shown in fig. 5, the differential difference amplifier used in the present invention has two pairs of differential inputs VIP, VIN and VIP1, VIN1, VDD, VSS being power and ground, respectively, VB1 and VB2 being bias signals, VCMFB being common mode feedback signals, VOP, VON being output signals. When one of the integrators is in an integration state, the input end of the other integrator is controlled to be a common-mode level VCM, so that mutual isolation between an integration capacitor in the integrator and a shared input port of the multiplexing amplifier is realized, errors generated between the integration capacitors C3 and C7 due to charge injection are avoided, noise and harmonic components are reduced, and the multiplexing influence of the amplifier is eliminated to a certain extent.
Fig. 6 shows the FFT simulation result of the second-order modulator designed in the present invention, when the input signal frequency is 73.2421875Hz, the sampling frequency is 200K Hz, the number of sampling points is 16384, and the bandwidth is 250Hz, the signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio SNDR obtained by simulation is 86dB, and the effective number ENOB is 14 bits.
