Z domain model for this sigma-delta modulator
Jan 21st, 2009, 4:52am
 
This model is different from traditional modulator.

Could any one help derive the Z-domain model for this modulator?

I have one in mind but that looks involves a (1-Y) scaler at input. Thus make it looks strange. Hope some people familiar with this could help.

Hi neonflash,

To me it looks that this model consist of discrete-time, continuous-time and non-linear blocks. Besides choosing a  linearized model for the quantizer one needs to know how the switches work in order to apply the correct transformation.

Regards

We could treate Integrator as Z-1/(1-Z-1)

neoflash,

I guess a and b all independent inputs. Y is the output. As the quantized output Y is not fed back to the input, the quantization noise is not modulated actually. What I have derived is shown below.

Y(Z)=a(Z)(z-1/(1-z-1)) + E(Z); if Y(Z-1)<0
Y(Z)=b(Z)(z-1/(1-z-1)) + E(Z); if Y(Z-1)>0

Then, how we compute the TF for Y, from a and b?
