Abstract

This brief proposes a dual-mode continuous-time (CT) sigma-delta modulator (SDM) for switched-mode power supplies comprising a switchable loop filter (LF) based on a single op-amp resonator (SOR). The proposed modulator adaptively adjusts the LF architecture between the third and second order and optimizes the noise transfer function (NTF) using the partial resistors as per the sampling frequency. This facilitates the desired bandwidth and resolution while mitigating design complexity and minimizing the need for tuning circuitry. Moreover, the LF implemented with the SOR enhances both the power and area efficiency of the modulator in each operating mode by reducing the number of active components. The modulator was fabricated based on an 0.18-

$\mu $

m CMOS process with an active area of 0.105 mm2. It achieved peak signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of 66.0/65.3 dB for signal bandwidths of 0.5/1.1 MHz. The power consumptions were 127/

$280~\mu $

W from a 1.8-V supply when clocked at 40/160 MHz. The figures of merit for each mode were 82/93 fJ/conv.-step.

基于单运放谐振器的带可重构环路滤波器的双模连续时间Σ-Δ 调制器

本简介提出了一种用于开关电源的双模连续时间（CT）Σ-Δ调制器（SDM），包括一个基于单运放谐振器（SOR）的可切换环路滤波器（LF）。拟议的调制器可在三阶和二阶之间自适应调整 LF 结构，并根据采样频率使用部分电阻器优化噪声传递函数（NTF）。这有助于实现所需的带宽和分辨率，同时降低设计复杂性，最大限度地减少对调谐电路的需求。此外，利用 SOR 实现的低频通过减少有源元件的数量，提高了调制器在每种工作模式下的功率和面积效率。该调制器采用 0.18- $\mu $ m CMOS 工艺制造，有源面积为 0.105 mm2。信号带宽为 0.5/1.1 MHz 时，峰值信噪比 (SNR) 分别为 66.0/65.3 dB。时钟频率为 40/160 MHz 时，1.8 V 电源功耗为 127/ 280~\mu $ W。每种模式的功耗分别为 82/93 fJ/conv.-step。

期刊介绍： The IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems is published as a monthly journal under the co-sponsorship of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society, the IEEE Computer Society, and the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society. Design and realization of microelectronic systems using VLSI/ULSI technologies require close collaboration among scientists and engineers in the fields of systems architecture, logic and circuit design, chips and wafer fabrication, packaging, testing and systems applications. Generation of specifications, design and verification must be performed at all abstraction levels, including the system, register-transfer, logic, circuit, transistor and process levels. To address this critical area through a common forum, the IEEE Transactions on VLSI Systems have been founded. The editorial board, consisting of international experts, invites original papers which emphasize and merit the novel systems integration aspects of microelectronic systems including interactions among systems design and partitioning, logic and memory design, digital and analog circuit design, layout synthesis, CAD tools, chips and wafer fabrication, testing and packaging, and systems level qualification. Thus, the coverage of these Transactions will focus on VLSI/ULSI microelectronic systems integration.
