Abstract:
1. A circuit for converting an analog input at an input terminal to a digital output at an output terminal, the circuit comprising: an analog chopper circuit having an input coupled to the input terminal, and providing an output at a first predetermined rate f a first terminal and a second terminal, wherein a user-customizable buffer/amplifier is placed across the first and second terminals such that the output of the analog chopper at a first predetermined rate f an analog to digital converter including a quantizer circuit, the quantizer circuit having an input coupled to the second terminal, and providing an output at a second predetermined rate f a first digital filter and first decimator having an input coupled to the output of the quantizer circuit, and providing an output at a rate f a second digital filter having an input coupled to the output of the first digital filter and first decimator; and a second decimator having an input coupled to the output of the second digital filter, and providing the digital output at a rate font divided by M×P (f
