A 0.9V 92dB Double-Sampled Switched-RCDelta-SigmaAudioADC

Abstract—A 0.9 V third-order double-sampled delta-sigma audio ADC is presented. A new method using a combination of a switched-RC technique and a floating switched-capacitor double-sampling configuration enabled low-voltage operation without clock boosting or bootstrapping. A three-level quantizer with simple dynamic element matching was used to improve linearity. The prototype IC implemented in a 0.13 m CMOS process achieves 92 dB DR, 91 dB SNR and 89 dB SNDR in a 24 kHz audio signal bandwidth, while consuming 1.5 mW from a
0.9 V supply. The prototype operates from 0.65 V to 1.5 V supply with minimal performance degradation。
