Abstract

In accordance with systems and methods of the present disclosure, an input network for a delta-sigma modulator having at least one integrator stage and a feedback digital-to-analog stage, may be configured to, during a first period of a first phase of a clock signal, drive an analog feedback signal proportional to a digital feedback signal of the feedback digital-to-analog stage onto an input plate of a sampling capacitor integral to the input network. The input network may further be configured to, during a second period of the first phase of the clock signal, sample an analog input signal onto the input plates of the sampling capacitor.
