Abstract An analog circuit with high resolution and low power in a sigma-delta （Σ-Δ） digital-to-analog converter (DAC) was designed . By adopting 4-bit quantized technique，this DAC not only enhances the stability of the modulator, reduces the power consumption and the occupied area, but also reduces the system requirements for the back-end low-pass filter. Realizing methods of different modules were given, besides, design techniques in crucial modules that generated nonlinearity, such as switched-capacitors and bandgap reference, were discussed . This design was fabricated in SMIC 0.18 μm mixedsignal CMOS process and verified. The measured results showed that the chip had a peak SNDR of 89 dB and a 96 dB dynamic range (DR), and consumed a total power of 19.1 mW, and this value droped to 9.1 mW without buffers. Moreover, the prototype yield was 90%, achieving high precision and low power dissipation.

多比特量化的音频DAC中模拟电路的设计
设计了一个高精度、低功耗音频ΣΔ数模转换器（DAC）中的模拟部分电路.该DAC采用4 bit量化,不仅增强了调制器的稳定性,减小了功耗和占用面积,而且降低了系统对后端低通滤波器的要求.讨论了电路各模块的实现方法,并详述了开关电容、带隙基准源等产生非线性的关键模块的设计技术.基于SMIC 0.18 μm混合信号CMOS工艺进行了流片验证,测试结果表明：芯片最大信噪失真比达89 dB,动态范围为96 dB,总功耗为19.1 mW,其中不含缓冲器的功耗仅9.1 mW,样片良率为90%,实现了高精度、低功耗的性能.
