Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A CMOS frequency-to-digital converter (FDC) which directly demodulates FM signals to pulse density modulation (PDM) signals is proposed. The FDC architecture has an analogy with the oversampling delta-sigma modulator. Its noise shaping loop includes a voltage-controlled oscillator as a feedback D-to-A converter, which generates binary frequency shift keying (FSK) signals. A test chip was designed and fabricated with a 0.6um CMOS technology. The performance of 40.2 dB SNR at 49 MHz carrier frequency and 500 kHz signal bandwidth was obtained by a functional simulation. The power dissipation is 11.8mW at 3.3V supply. We have also confirmed a basic operation by test chip evaluation.
