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).
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 ...
A 1-bit DAC (sometimes called Bitstream converter by Philips) is a consumer electronics marketing term describing an oversampling digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that uses a digital noise shaping delta-sigma modulator operating at many multiples of the sampling frequency that outputs to an actual 1-bit DAC (which could be fully differential to minimize crosstalk). [1]
By running these converters at some multiple of the target sampling rate, and low-pass filtering the oversampled signal down to half the target sampling rate, a final result with less noise (over the entire band of the converter) can be obtained. Delta-sigma converters use a technique called noise shaping to move the quantization noise to the ...
8-channel Cirrus Logic CS4382 digital-to-analog converter as used in a sound card. In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) performs the reverse function.
The successive-approximation analog-to-digital converter circuit typically contains four chief subcircuits: A sample-and-hold circuit that acquires the input voltage V in. An analog voltage comparator that compares V in to the output of a digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
The Nintendo Entertainment System's audio processing unit (the Ricoh 2A03 chip) includes a Delta Modulation Channel (DMC) to demodulate percussion and sound effects. The DMC reads delta-encoded audio data via direct memory access into a shift register, which gets shifted out serially into an up/down counter acting as the demodulator's ...
