In the first integrator of the modulator, a bootstrap switch is used to accomplish accurate signal sampling. Without a transconductor operational amplifier(OTA), the sigma-delta modulator adopts a cascode inverter in the subthreshold region to save power consumption. The modulator is fabricated with a 0.13μm CMOS mixed-signal process. The experiment results show that with the 0.6 V power supply it achieves a maximum SNDR of 69.7 dB and an ENOB of 11.3 bit, respectively, but only consumes 5.07 μw power dissipation.展开更多
