differential amplifier in delta sigma converter
  • A differential amplifier amplifies the difference between the two input voltages but suppresses any voltage common to the two inputs
  • VO = Ad (V1 - V2) **(ideal differential amplifier)**.
  • The differential Gain (Ad = – (R3 / R1))
  • CMRR = 20 logs (Ad / Ac)
  • ![differencial amplifier](https://electrical.codidact.com/uploads/NBSzVcJ6Xt1DuYmKtCG5RdNT)
  • so as an example: V1=5.005 V2=4.995 Ad=100 **(ideal opamp)**
  • VO = Ad(V1 - V2)
  • VO = 100(5.005-4.995)
  • VO = 1 volt
  • so now the questions:
  • 1. why we need only the difference?
  • 2. in the delta-sigma converter why we are substracting an input with an delayed input?
  • 3. why we need a differential amplifier in the delta-sigma converter?
  • Note: am a beginner fascinated by electronics I did a lot of reading before I post my questions here so if my questions look a little stupid bear with me and guide me that gonna be nice of you.
