How to Achieve Optimum Performance from Delta-Sigma A/D and D/A Converters

Authors: Harris, Steven

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 41 · Issue 10 · pp. 782–790 · October 1993

Abstract

Modern delta-sigma analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters are capable of very high levels of perfomance. Realizing the full potential from this class of converters requires attention to many details. These details, which include clock jitter and interference effects, ground plane techniques, minimizing power supply coupling, and reducing tone effects, are discussed and a checklist of rules is presented which, if followed, will ensure optional converter operation.
