contents Digital/Analog converters based on sigma-delta modulation are simple and unexpensive circuits featuring a signal bandwidth limited by speed constraints. Multi-bit modulators allow balancing complexity and speed by reducing the clock frequency and increasing the number of levels in the quantizer. In this case, the multi-bit digital to analog block (DAC) can reduce the performance of the entire system. Data Weighted Averaging (DWA) methods have been proposed to reduce the vulnerability to DAC errors at the cost of spurious tones in the signal band. This work analyzes the tone producing mechanism and proposes a modification of the DWA to remove spurious tones.
