Abstract: A sigma delta modulator having an integrator with a first input for coupling to an analog signal and a second input for coupling to a reference voltage. A comparator is provided having a first input coupled to an output of the integrator and a second input for coupling to the reference voltage. The comparator produces signal having a logic state in accordance with the relative magnitude of signals at the first and second inputs thereof. The logic state is latched at the output of such comparator during latching transitions in a series of latching pulses fed to the comparator. A one-bit quantizer is provided for storing the logic state of at the output of the comparator at sampling transitions of a series of clock pulses fed to the one-bit quantizer. The series of clock pulses and the series of latching pulses are synchronized one with the other. Each one of the latching transitions occurs prior to a corresponding one of the sampling transitions.
