Abstract

See full text

In a delta-sigma modulator including first and second subtractors, first and second integrators, a quantizer, and a DA converter, a first feedback circuit includes first charge holding circuits which hold charges of the analog signal from the DA converter for different sampling intervals, can change a feedback amount of the analog signal from the DA converter, and outputs the analog signal from each first charge holding circuits to the second subtractor. A second feedback circuit includes second charge holding circuits which hold charges of the analog signal from the second integrator for different sampling intervals, can change a feedback amount of the analog signal from the second integrator, and outputs an analog signal from each of the second charge holding circuits to the second subtractor. A controller switches an order of filter characteristic of the delta sigma modulator by changing feedback amounts of the first and second feedback circuits.
