  • Publication number: 20220216839
    Abstract: Differential switching output stage for audio, power and digital data transmission can cause a common mode error due to asymmetric transition between positive and negative outputs. Systems and methods are provided for common mode error correction. In particular, summing nodes, novel error amps an edge switching can be used for common-mode feedback (CMFB) in differential signaling and other applications.

  • Patent number: 10284221
    Abstract: A multibit flash quantizer circuit, such as included as a portion of delta-sigma conversion circuit, can be operated in a dynamic or configurable manner. Information indicative of at least one of an ADC input slew rate or a prior quantizer output code can be used to establish a flash quantizer conversion window. Within the selected conversion window, comparators in the quantizer circuit can be made active. Comparators outside the conversion window can be made dormant, such as depowered or biased to save power. An output from such dormant converters can be preloaded and latched. In this manner, full resolution is available without requiring that all comparator circuits within the quantizer remain active at all times.
