Abstract

See full text

A switched capacitor circuit implements a base band, finite impulse response filter (BBF) and balanced modulator with a single operational amplifier. The analog modulator has particular application in voice band modem applications and requires little or no microprocessor code space. Simplified sine and cosine functions are implemented in a pair of base band filters such that the output of only one base band filter is required at any one time. In this manner, a single operational amplifier may be utilized to implement the analog modulator/base band filter of the present invention. The use of switched capacitor technology and a single operational amplifier results in less silicon area dedicated to the analog modulator than for corresponding digital modulators.
