Abstract: A continuous-time sigma-delta modulator includes a continuous-time sigma-delta modulation module, a data monitoring module, and an offset calibration module. The data monitoring module and the offset calibration module are added on the basis of the continuous-time sigma-delta modulation module. Based on a hardware architecture design of the offset calibration module and the data monitoring module, with reference to software data processing, an offset of a quantizer in the continuous-time sigma-delta modulation module can be pre-calibrated based on feedback of a signal-to-noise ratio of a digital signal and a preset calibration algorithm, to obtain an offset calibration digital code. Finally, the offset calibration digital code is input into the quantizer by using the offset calibration module, and the offset of the quantizer is finally calibrated based on the offset calibration digital code.

Abstract: A fourth-order feedforward compensation operational amplifier is provided. The amplifier includes a first transconductance amplification unit, a second transconductance amplification unit, a third transconductance amplification unit, a fourth transconductance amplification unit, a fifth transconductance amplification unit, a sixth transconductance amplification unit, and a seventh transconductance amplification unit. The first unit, the second unit, the third unit, and the fourth unit are cascaded in sequence to form a fourth-order operational amplifier path. The first unit, the fifth unit, and the fourth unit form a third-order operational amplifier path. The first unit and the sixth unit form a second-order operational amplifier path. The seventh unit forms a first-order operational amplifier path.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a circuit for generating a multi-phase clock having random disturbance added thereto. The circuit for generating a clock includes a main clock module, a random signal generation module and a buffer matrix switch module. The main clock module generates N multi-phase clock signals; and the buffer matrix switch module randomly switches, under the control of a random control signal output by the random signal generation module, transmission paths of the input N multi-phase clock signals, and outputs N multi-phase clock signals with random disturbance. In the present disclosure, the clock phase error is whitened by adding random disturbance. Only with a small loss of signal-to-noise ratio, the influence of a multi-phase clock phase error on the performance of a high-precision TI ADC can be eliminated in real time, and the influence of the fluctuation of a clock phase error can be tracked and eliminated.
