Abstract

See full text

A third-order sigma-delta analogue-to-digital conversion circuit has a filter comprising the cascaded arrangement of three individual filter circuits, a quantization circuit and a monitoring circuit. The monitoring circuit detects for a predetermined, periodic pattern in the output bit stream. The periodicity of this pattern is ##EQU1## when f.sub.c is the converter sampling frequency and f.sub.r is the resonant frequency of the filter. If the pattern is detected, the monitoring circuit resets the filter.
