Hello
I'm trying to design a DAC, using a DT 3rd order Sigma Delta with feedforward (CIFF) , using verilog.
I applied the coefficients specified by Shreier's Delsig toolbox, but the output wave is distorted. I investigated a bit and discovered that these coeficients DO NOT account for accumulator (or integrator) saturation. The coefficients returned by the toolbox only guarantee Transfer Function stability, ignoring implementation issues such as the saturation.
Does anyone know how to calculate the coefficients that make the modulator stable and avoid saturation?
Also, if anyone already knows the coefficient values for this topology, i would really apreciate you tell me. At least I could test right away to see if it works.
Thanks
