English: This is a block diagram of a simplified Delta Sigma ADC and is my own work drawn using "Inkscape" a free svg editor. It was drawn to illustrate a description of the functioning of the so-called Delta Sigma ADC which appears in the overall article on Delta Sigma modulation.
Delta-sigma (ΔΣ; or sigma-delta, ΣΔ) modulation is an oversampling method for encoding signals into low bit depth digital signals at a very high sample-frequency as part of the process of delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs).
English: Delta-Sigma Modulation ADC (top) and DAC (bottom) comparison block diagram. The actual delta-sigma modulation stage in each is identified by a curly bracket. Green arrows indicate analog signals, and blue arrows indicate digital signals.

A delta-sigma ADC (also known as a sigma-delta ADC) is based on a negative feedback loop with an analog filter and low resolution (often 1 bit) but high sampling rate ADC and DAC. The feedback loop continuously corrects accumulated quantization errors and performs noise shaping : quantization noise is reduced in the low frequencies of interest ...
English: Simple circuit performing delta-sigma modulation on an input 20 kHz sine wave s(t). An ideal op amp integrator using s(t) and p(t) produces ε(t), which can be quantized and sampled by an ideal D flip flop to produce a pulse density modulation result p(t), which used as negative feedback.
In delta modulation, the transmitted data are reduced to a 1-bit data stream representing either up (↗) or down (↘). Its main features are: The analog signal is approximated with a series of segments. Each segment of the approximated signal is compared to the preceding bits and the successive bits are determined by this comparison.
