The new principles of constructing of the clocked reversible integrating analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with pulse-width (PWM) and in-phase amplitude-frequency-pulse modulation (AFPM), as well as closed integrating ADC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration is considered. The block diagrams and time diagrams of the ADC are reduced. An analysis of their dynamic characteristics is given.
It is shown that the expansion of bandwidth of the ADC with PWM is possible by increasing the number of cycles of sweep conversion "within" the synchronization interval. In particular, it is proved the ADC with inphase AFPM in comparison with the known technical solutions has at least an order higher temperature and time stability of the characteristics. The bandwidth of the closed integrating ADC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration depends on the time constant of channel integration. Significant expansion of the ADC bandwidth which purchased due to the reducing of the metrological characteristics is possible in his open-loop structure in the deficiency of channel integration.
Keywords: integrating analog-digital converter, integrating sweep converter, voltage converter into frequency of pulses, pulse-width modulation, amplitude-frequency-pulse modulation, tactless bit-by-bit equilibration, noise immunity, control system.
Introduction
In control systems (CS) with the slave network of power valve converters (VC) [1-4] limit bandwidth fb is determined by the frequency fS and the number "m" of phase power supply and according to A. Kotelnikov theorem isfb < 0,5-m-f [5]. Under these conditions, the clock frequency removal of data from analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) to choose the higher of those values that are dictated by the discreteness of VC is not only pointless, but harmful, so as it leads to a decrease in noise-immunity of control system due to "entering" of high-frequency pulsation [6] determined by the properties of the converted analog signal into a digital code. These coordinates are, for example, the signals of the current and voltage feedback, and in some cases, the rate of the actuating mechanism, as well as external noises, which are often the generator directly to the elements of the electronic part of the CS, working in a discrete (pulsed) mode [7]1.
To date, more effective ways to increase the noise immunity of the ADC than integrating analog-digital conversion, not invented. The leaders are ADC with push-pull integration [8, 9], the ADC with integrating pulse-width modulation (PWM) [10] and number-to-pulse ADC [9].
The basic disadvantage of the ADC with push-pull integration is interval when the ADC’s input is disconnected from the source of the converted signal
and the CS is actually loses connection with the processes that occur in it. The only way to avoid a similar situation is used in a bundle of two antiphase running the ADC, which complicates not only the whole construction of the ADC, but also its setting.
The basis of the ADC with PWM are integrating sweep converters (SC), which synchronized external sawtooth or pulse signal. The processes in these ADCs are aperiodic mode, depending on the parameters of the synchronization signal and the time constant of SC’s integration circuit [11] and, as a rule, are rather inertial, to be used in fast CS.
In the number-pulse ADC are made rigid requirements on the work stability of the converter of input signal into frequency of pulses, which added task of supplying the reversibility of the ADC that is his ability to work with the signals of both positive and negative polarity.
The overall quality of the referred ADCs is open character of their structure, which gives to rise the natural problem of providing a high level of metrological characteristics of the converter, and the need for clock interval of the ADC, after which the command is issued to permit data reading. Often the clock period is dictated by the most inertial link of the ADC, which determines the dynamics of this method of analog-digital conversion. Usually, when solving the traditional problems of automation, the fact of the ADC

clock is not negative, in some cases, it is an effective means of suppressing noise [7]. However, optimization of dynamic characteristics of objects with non-stationary parameters and a high level of external noise is desirable to have the tactless integrating ADC, allowing the system to change the sampling frequency, depending on its mode.
The purpose of the article is acquaintance of specialists in the field of information electronics and automation of technological processes, as well as the manufacturers of integrated circuits with the developments in the field of ADCs, which have been made in recent years in the department of electric driver of SUSU and are intended for control systems by valve
electric drives and technology automation [12-14], characterized by high levels of interfering signals.
Clocked ADC with integrating PWM
ADC (Fig. 1 a) contains the SC, the generator of signal of sawtooth sweep GSS and converter "PWM -DIGIT".
The SC [11] includes an adder E, an integrator with a transfer function W (p) = 1 / Tjp , where T is time constant and the anhysteresis relay element RE with symmetric no inverting characteristic, the output signal which varies discretely within ±A.
"Inside" the GSS of a counting circuit (in fig.1 a isn’t shown) is formed digital reference sawtooth
Fig. 1. Block diagram (a) and timing diagrams of signals (b - e) of the reverse integrating analog-to-digital converter with a PWM
sweep (Fig. 1 b), period TS of which is determined by the external clock pulses corresponding to the sampling interval of the VC.
The discreteness of reference sweep is determined by the frequency of own generator of counting pulses and is negligible quantity. With help the sweep are given numbers N*, N*, N*, ..., N* so that they followed with a period T0 < TS, where TS / T0 = n - an integer. In Fig. 1 b as an example, there are three values N*, N*, N*, which form a discrete front of GSS’s output analog sweep destined for synchronization of SC.
Switching the REs occurs at instant times, when equal amplitudes of the signals of the master sweep to the GSS’s output and slave sweep from the output of the integrator I. If the input signal Xin is, for example, negative polarity (Fig. 1 c), then on the time interval t1 the signal of the master sweep from the output of the integrator I equal difference of the signal at the output of RE and the input signal of SC (A - Xin), and in the interval t2 it equal add of these signals (-A -Xin) (Fig. 1 c, e).
As a result, t1 > t2, and the average value of the output pulses of REs is proportional to the input signal Xin. With the positive input signal SC works similarly with the only difference is that t1 < t2.
In general, the SC synchronized of "saw" on the output of RE is an aperiodic link W (p) = 1/(1 + TEp)
[11], where TE « 0,45 • Tj • T0 is the equivalent time constant of the SC; TI = Tj / TGSS is normalized value of the integrator time constant I referred to the time constant of the signal of sawtooth sweep TGSS. In general, T0 = TS / n, where n is the division factor of synchronization interval TS (Fig. 1 b - e). At that, the condition Tj > 2Tgss should comply for reliable synchronization of SC by signal from the output of GSS.
From these relations it is clear that as the period of the sawtooth sweep signal T0 "inside" synchronization interval decreases so speed of SC increases.
Converter "PWM - DIGIT" (Fig. 1 a) contains two counting channels CC1, CC2 and arithmetic-logic device ALD. CC1 converts into a digital code N1 pulses of positive polarity, and CC2 forms a code of N2, depending on the duration of the output pulses of negative polarity.
In this case, are the following options of "numbering" of the PWM signal from the output of the SC.
In the first case it is assumed that on the interval
n
Ts (Fig. 1 b) sum of "odd" N - X t2i_l and "even"
i=1
n
N2 -X t2i synchronization intervals of SC (Fig. 1 d)
i=1
are converted to "digit" with following calculation of
N _ n2
the output code NOUT = K—1----------------2, where K is the
OUT n + n2
coefficient of scheme proportionality.
The second option of converting of analog signal into the code takes into account only the latest in a
series of periods when Nl - t2n_, N2 - t2n and
N _ n2
NOUT = K—1--------------. In either case, the sign bit is
OUT n + n2
formed in ALD by comparing the values of N1 and
n2.
In Fig. 2 shows the logarithmic amplitude-frequency characteristics (LAFC) k = F (f) of ADC
with PWM, taken at different values of the division factor n = TS /T0 of the synchronization interval TS and the relative integration time constant of SC Tj = 2,2 for the first (Fig. 2 a) and the second (Fig. 2 b) algorithms of "numbering" of the PWM signal are "inside" of the synchronization interval TS. Here, k is a coefficient of transmission of an integrating ADC;
f = fJN /fs is normalized frequency fJN of the harmonic input signal divided by the frequency of clock pulses fS = (TS)_ (TS = 3,3 ms). LAFC obtained by modeling of the ADCs in a technical computing software MatLab + Simulink.
LAFC analysis showed the following:
_ an increase in the number "n" sampling intervals T0 "inside" the synchronization interval TS of VC leads to the expansion of ADC’s bandwidth due to the to reduce the equivalent time constant of the TE of SC (Fig. 2 a). For example, for n = 1 a range of uniform
bandwidth of ADCs frequency is at the level f « 0,17 and for n = 8 is f « 0,4 ;
_ slight difference between the LAFCs for n = 4 and n = 8 shows that the rational value of the coefficient "n" be considered as n = 4, when a compromise is possible between the dynamics and noise-immunity of the ADC;
_ "numbering" of the PWM signal from a finite sampling interval a series of SC’s output pulses (Fig. 2 b) can increase the bandwidth of the ADC as compared to the initial method of converting of PWM signal into a digital code (Fig. 2 a). For example, if the "numbering" is not a series of pulses, but only a finite sampling interval (period), then for n = 4 bandwidth of the ADC (Fig. 2 a) increases almost to the limit value f » 0,5 (Fig. 2 b).
This is explained as follows. So under the influence of the input step waveform (Fig. 3 a), SC goes on the desired trajectory to exponentially when each of the sampling intervals T01 ... T0n (Fig. 3 b) contains the error A1 ... An (Fig. 3 c). Obviously, the error of the last of a series of sampling intervals will be the lowest in comparison, for example, with an average resulting error of the SC [8 = (EA,)/n] > An for the entire sampling interval TS of VC.
Clocked ADC with in-phase amplitude-
frequency-pulse modulation (AFPM)
This class of ADCs [15] is advisable to apply in cases where a wide dynamic range of the converted

signal must be combined with high temperature stability characteristics of the analog-digital converter.
ADC (Fig. 4 a) contains two identical on his action integrating a voltage converter into frequency of pulses VCF1 and VCF2 [16, 17], containing amplitude modulators AM1, AM2, adders E1, E2, integrators I1, I2 and relay elements RE1, RE2.
Each of the VCF is intended for work with the signal of a certain polarity. So VCF1 transforms the input voltage of positive polarity into frequency of pulses, and VCF2 transforms input signal of negative polarity.
In the absence of a signal XJN on the ADC’s information input (Fig. 4 b), the output voltage of AM1
and AM2 are zero, so the blocks E1, I1, RE1 and E2,
I2, RE2 operate in a free-running mode when the outputs of RE1 (Fig. 4 d) and RE2 (Fig. 4 e) are formed
bipolar pulses with frequency f0 = (T0)_1. If links characteristics of channels VCF1, VCF2 are identity, then its work with an equal value of the initial frequency f).
A possible phase shift between output signals of VCF1 and VCF2 principle does not matter, since it might ultimately lead to a conversion error only to one significant digit of binary code.
The output signals of the integrators I1, I2 are symmetric sawtooth wave shape and are limited in amplitude of switching thresholds ±b of RE1 and RE2 (Fig. 4 d, e).
When applied to the ADC input signal is positive (Fig. 4 b) then at the input of AM1 appears positive sign voltage, which is then converted into frequency of output pulses of RE1, which increases in proportion to the amplitude of the XJN due to in-phase of output
pulses of AM1 and RE1 (in-phase AFPM) (Fig. 4 c, d). At the same time VCF2 works in a free-running mode with an initial frequency equal f0, acting as a channel of the reference frequency.
In general relations (1) are valid for VCF1 and VCF2.

trarily large from the theoretical positions, as well as the frequency of the output pulses of VCF.
Further transformation of impulses frequency into a digital code is done using the channel "FREQUENCY - DIGIT" (Fig. 4 a), where CC1 forms the number of N1, proportional to the frequency of the output pulses of VCF1 and CC2 forms the number of N2, depending on the frequency of the output signal of VCF2.
The resulting code of ALU NOUT = K • (N _ N2) is passed to output buses of the ADC at time of formation of the synchronization pulse and saved on them until the end of the next conversion cycle. Sign bit is also obtained by comparing the values of N1 and N2.
Analysis of dynamic characteristics of the ADC with AFPM showed that the determining factor here is the frequency of synchronization pulses, and from the frequency of self-oscillations of VCF1, VCF2 depends only on the ADC's digit, that is, the sampling error on the level of the converted signal.
Logarithmic amplitude-frequency characteristics of the ADC with AFPM is shown in Fig. 2 a, which was read at an initial frequency of the output pulses of VCF1, VCF2 equal to f0 = 10 kHz. The results show that the dynamic property, this class of the ADC, occupies an intermediate position between the ADC-PWM with an integer division of the sampling interval (Fig. 2 a) and ADC-PWM, where the "numbering" is made on the last sampling interval of SC (Fig. 2 b).
The using of VCF with in-phase AFPM can significantly improve the temporal and thermal stability of characteristics of the ADC.
So in the case drift of "zero" signal AeE of I or AM, for example, positive polarity (relations (2)), the interval t2n_x (Fig. 2) of the output pulses of RE1 is reduced, and the interval t2n is increasing. In this case the resulting error A/out of the frequency of output pulses is proportional to Ae|, while for the traditional structures of VCF [10] is Af - Ae

The system of equations (2) except for the previously adopted the following notation: AeE is normalized value of the resulting drift of "zero" signal of the integrator I1 (I2) and the amplitude modulator AM1 (AM2) is provided to input of the adder E1 (E2) (Fig.
4 a); 8/Our is the relative error of the frequency of output pulses of VCF in the presence of signal AeE.
Given that AeE <<1,0, considered the VCF has the temperature and time stability of characteristics of the at least one order of magnitude greater than the known technical solutions.
As shown by experimental research, when the channels VCF1 and VCF2 based on the same hardware components of a series then their resulting drift of the "zero" is the almost identical in sign and magnitude. Then each of the codes N1 and N2 contain the same component of the error of “zero” AN, which in practice provides a partial self-correction result of the conversion N - N2.
Closed integrating ADC
with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration
The integrating ADC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration [18-20] with a built in its closed circuit digital-to-analog converter (hereinafter "ADC -DAC") (Fig. 5) contains adders £IN, E2n-1 ... E2n-3 and EOUT, integrator I, relay elements RE1 ... REn and proportional links P1 ... Pn. When considering the principle of the ADC-DAC is limited to four digits "n" of binary code.
Links £in, £2n-1, ... , S2n-3, I, RE1 ... REn combine to form the ADC. Functions of the DAC operates the proportional links P1 ... Pn and EOUT. Adders £IN, E2n-1 ... E2n-3 have a unit coefficient of transmission for each of the inputs and produce the subtraction of input signals. The relay elements RE1 ... REn generally have symmetrical with respect to "zero" hysteresis loop, and their output signal changes discretely within ±A.
The adder EOUT has "n" number of inputs with a unit coefficient of transmission for each of them and makes a summation of the signals. Number of inputs the adder is chosen equal to the number of digits "n" of the converted binary code.
Proportional links P1 ... Pn are implemented with coefficient of transmission, which are varied according to bit’s weight of the converted code in the general case with arbitrary base, but more often, as taken here, with a binary code which is the proportional to series 2n1, 2n-2, ., 20. The largest coefficient of proportional link 2n-1 corresponds to the weight of high-order bit of binary code, and the lowest 20 corresponds to the weight of lower order bit.
Further in the text use the following notation: YI is the output signal of the integrator I, YOUT is the output signal of the adder EOUT; ±4-2n-1, ±4-2n-2, ±4-2n-3, ... , ±4-2° are the maximum levels of output signals of proportional links P1 ... Pn, respectively; ±b are switching thresholds of RE1 ... REn, with |b| < |A|; ±4
is the amplitude of the output pulses of the relay elements RE1 ... REn, and believe that the level "+A" corresponds to a logical "1", and the level "-A" corresponds to a logical "0"; Q„_u Qn-2, Qn-3, ..., Q° are bits of digital output code at the outputs of the RE1 ...
Fig. 5. The block diagram of closed-integrating ADC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration
REn; N1 is digital code at the output of the RE1 ... REn.
For ADC - DAC input signal can be represented in the form of expression X1N = ±A( k + °,5m), where A = 2Amax/Nmax = 2 A is the weight of the unit of lower-order bit of the converted code in analog form;
i=n _1
Nmax = ^ 2i = 2n _ 1 is the maximum value of a
i=0
binary digital code in decimal, which is formed at the outputs of RE1 ... Rn; A = Amax/Nmax is the pulse’s
amplitude at the output of relay elements RE1 ... REn, Amax is the maximum amplitude of the output signal of the DAC k = 0, 1, 2, ... , (Nmax _ 1)/2 are whole numbers, corresponding decimal numbers of the converted code; m is coefficient taking into account changes of the input signal in the interval A (_1,0 < m < 1,0).
Consider the operation of the device, provided XIN = 0, when numbers k = 0 and m = 0.
We assume that the relay element RE1, which forms the high-order bit of the converted code is in the
+A. Then the amplitude on the output of proportional link P1 is A-2n1. For the equality XIN = YOUT, all the rest RE2 ... REn in the system are forced to switch to the "negative" position when the summary output sig-
OUT
is
- a(2n-1 - 2n-2 -2n-3-, ... , -20) - A.
Yout - At 2n
The condition that XIN = YOUT is impossible for the case XIN = 0, so that the signal at the output of the integrator I will fall under the action of voltage -A from the output £in, and where the equality YI = -b is achieved then first RE1 goes into "negative" state, and RE2 ... REn go in "+A". As a result, the summary output signal EOUT corresponds a value
YOUT = A(_2n_ + 2n_2 + 2n_3_, ... , + 2° ) = _A .
Thus, for XIN = 0 ADC - DAC is always in the mode switch of all relay elements with carrier oscillation frequency f° = 1 (4bT1), where b = |b/A| is the
normalized value of switching threshold of RE1 ... REn; TI is time constant of integration.
As a result with XIN = 0 at the output of RE1 ... REn periodically formed two values of shifted binary
code N1, which are equal to: (Nmax +1)/2 and (Nmax _ 1)/2 . To bring it to the standard form necessary from the code value N1 subtract the value N2 = (Nmax +1)/2 . The latter is implemented by the
device of subtracting codes (in Fig. 5 is not shown to simplify the circuit ADC - DAC). Then, for X1N = 0 the output code of converter N3 = N1 - N2 in decimal form will be equal zero or minus one. As a result, the output of the ADC is formed by a static error which is equal to one lower order bit. With a large number of digits of ADC - DAC (n > 8) the error is almost no noticeable effect on the accuracy of his work and can be neglected.
For other values of k ^ 0 and m = 0, ADC - DAC works similar to the case with numbers k = 0 and m =
0. In this case at least one of the relay elements RE1 ... REn is necessarily in a mode of switching with a carrier frequency f° = 1j(4bT1).
Consider the work of the converter for other values of m, different from zero and changing the range _1,0 < m < 1,0 and k = 0 when X1N =± A • m . For these values the device goes into a frequency-pulse-width modulation (FPWM), in which the switching frequency of RE1 ... REn reduced in accordance with
the expression f = /q (1 _ m2). The condition code
N1 on the output of RE1... REn remains the same as for the case k = 0 and m = 0.
For m = 1 and any other integer values of k the switching frequency of RE1 ... REn becomes equal zero and there is an established process in the converter, when X1N = YOUT. For example, for X1N = A (k = 0) the relay element RE1 is switched to "positive" state, and RE2 ... REn are switched in the "negative" position. As a result, the summary signal at the output
of the DAC is YOUT = A( 2n_1 _ 2n_2 _ 2n_3_, ... , _ 2°) = A
and is balanced by the input signal X1N = A . The output voltage of the integrator I reaches a steady-state value Y1 (t) = b so as to constantly keep the RE1 in a "positive" state. Offset digital code N1 at the output of RE1 ... REn is equal value (Nmax +1)/2, and the code N3 = 0.
Similarly, ADC - DAC operates at other values of k and m = 1. For example, the maximum possible value k = (Nmax _ 1)/2 will correspond the maximum
(N _1 1 ^
input signal level XIN = ±A-I — + - I = ±A • Nmax.
If X1N = A• Nmax, then RE1 ... REn switched to a state +A.
As a result, the summary output signal EOUT is equal to YOUT = a(2n_ + 2n_2 + 2n_3+, ... , + 2°) = A^Nmax and is balanced of input signal X1N = A • Nmax . The
output voltage of the integrator I reaches a steady-state value Y1 (t) = (Nmax _1) + b so as to constantly keep
RE1 ... REn in "positive" state, which corresponds to the minimum value of the code N1 = 0. When you subtract from the code N1 to code N2 = (Nmax +1)/2 we
get a code N3 = (Nmax +1)/2 on the converter output.
For X1N = _A • Nmax , conversely all the RE1 ... REn are switched in "negative" state, when the output voltage EOUT changes sign and becomes, equal
YOUT = _ A (2n_' + 2n_2 + 2n_3 +, ... , + 2°) = _ A • Nmax,
which corresponds to the minimum value of the code N1 = 0. When you subtract from code N1 to code
N2 = (Nmax + I)/2 we get a code N3 =_( Nmax +l)/2
on the converter output.
The considered ADC - DAC is a closed system, so the steady-state mode the signal level X1N at the input of ADC must always be balanced by voltage output YOUT of the DAC. When the digit capacity of DAC does not provide the desired accuracy (discrete) of transformation between levels, then between these levels starting mode of frequency-pulse-width modulation. However, the averaged integral accuracy is always ensured because of the integrator in the direct regulation channel.
In Fig. 6 shows the oscillograms of the four-digit integrating ADC - DAC, obtained on the basis of computer modeling in the program MatLab + Simu-link, when exposed to its input the dynamic signal XH(t) = Am-sin(2nft), where Am, f are the amplitude and the frequency of the harmonic input signal, respectively.
Modeling was performed with the following parameters: the maximum amplitude at the output of the DAC is equal to Amax = 15 V, the weight of the unit of lower bit order of converted code in analog form is equal to A = 2Amax/(2n - 1) = 2 V, the amplitude of the pulses at the output of relay elements RE1 . RE4 are equal to A = Amax/(2n - 1) = 1, normalized switching thresholds of relay elements RE1 ... RE4 are equal to
b = |b/A| = 0,5, integration time constant of the integrator is equal to T1 = 0,1 ms, the carrier oscillation frequency f° = y(4bT1) of converter by X1N = 0 is
equal to 5 kHz.
From the oscillograms at the Fig. 6 can be seen that the output signal at the output of the DAC is divided into 15 modulation zones (Z = 2n - 1) according to the digit "n" of binary code. Within each modulation zone converter operates in the mode of FPWM, as a result, the average output signal Y0(t) of DAC with high accuracy reproduces the harmonic input waveshape XH(t) (Fig. 6 a, b). With increasing frequency f of input signal the mode of FPWM within each modulation zone disappears and at the device output is formed by a discrete signal (Fig. 6 c, d).
Fig. 6. Oscillograms of the four-digit integrating ADC - DAC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration with Am = 15 V: f = 20 Hz (a, b) and f = 500 Hz (c, d)
In Fig. 7 shows the logarithmic amplitude-frequency characteristics (LAFC) k = F(f) for the
eight-digit integrating ADC - DAC, where k = AOUT / Am is transfer constant of the ADC - DAC; AOUT is the amplitude of the output signal of the DAC; f is the frequency of the input harmonic signal XH(t).
Analysis of the results showed that:
_ the uniform bandpass f of converter "Analog
- digit - analog" in which the transmission coefficient k decreases in V2 times depends only on the integration time constant TI and does not depend on the level of the input harmonic signal XH(t), the switching thresholds "b" of RE1 ... REn and bit "n" of the converter;
_ for the chosen value of the normalized switching threshold of RE1 ... REn b = |b/A| =0,5 the relative bandwidth of the converter fb = fj f° is approximately 0,32 for all values of the integration time constant TI (Fig. 7), so that the normalized value of
switching thresholds of RE1 ... REn b = |b/A| should be chosen as close as possible to the unit, but don’t not equal to it. For example, if b = 0,9 and all values of TI the relative bandwidth reaches a value fb « 0,57 that goes beyond the theoretically justified for pulsed systems the extent to which the interface between the frequency range of reliable and delayed sample is determined from Theorem of V.A. Kotelnikov and
amounts fb < 0,5 . The results obtained are valid not
only for the eight-bit ADC, but also for the converters with any other digit.
In cases where the priority is the speed of the ADC, but not his noise immunity the integrator I should be replaced by a proportional amplifier (repeater) and the feedback from the output of the DAC to the input of the ADC should be removed.
Findings:
1. At control systems with the slave chain of power valve converters the clock period of integrating ADC with PWM and AFPM advisable to choose a discrete set to VC, which is determined by the number of phase voltage and the configuration of its power circuit.
2. Expanding bandpass of ADC with PWM, clocked synchronization signal of VC, is possible by increasing the number of cycles of the sweeping conversion "inside" of the synchronization interval. In this case the best result gives a method in which the "digitization" is not subject to the amount, and the last of a series of intervals of the sweeping conversion of the ADC on the discretization interval of the VC.
3. ADC with in-phase AFPM has a practically unlimited allowable range of input signal and increased thermal and temporal stability of the characteristics of more than similar solutions for at least an order of magnitude. The dynamic characteristics of this class ADC are determined by sampling interval of VC (cycle transformation).

Fig. 7. The logarithmic amplitude-frequency characteristics of the eight-digit integrating ADC - DAC with tactless bit-by-bit equilibration with Am = |Am/Amax| = 1,0 (Amax = 12,75 V, A = 0,1 B, A = 50 mV, b = 25 mV, Z = 255)
depends only on the time constant of channel integration, which can be used in particular in control systems with variable cycle data collection and processing.
5. Increase speed the tactless ADCs is possible by changing the channel of integration to the proportional amplifier, with simultaneous breaking the feedback loop, which achieved at the cost of noise immunity and accuracy of the ADC.

О ДИНАМИКЕ НЕКОТОРЫХ СПОСОБОВ ИНТЕГРИРУЮЩЕГО ПРЕОБРАЗОВАНИЯ АНАЛОГОВОГО СИГНАЛА В ЦИФРОВОЙ КОД
Л.И. Цытович, М.М. Дудкин, С.П. Лохов, О.Г. Брылина
Рассмотрены новые принципы построения тактируемых реверсивных интегрирующих аналогоцифровых преобразователей (АЦП) с широтно-импульсной (ШИМ), синфазной амплитудно-частотноимпульсной модуляцией (АЧИМ), а также замкнутого интегрирующего АЦП с бестактовым поразрядным уравновешиванием. Приведены структурные схемы и временные диаграммы сигналов АЦП, дан анализ их динамических характеристик.
Показано, что расширение полосы пропускания АЦП с ШИМ возможно за счет увеличения числа циклов развертывающего преобразования «внутри» интервала синхронизации. В частности, доказано, что АЦП с синфазной АЧИМ по сравнению с известными техническими решениями имеет не менее, чем на порядок более высокую температурную и временную стабильность характеристик. Полоса пропускания в замкнутом интегрирующем АЦП с бестактовым поразрядным уравновешиванием зависит только от постоянной времени канала интегрирования. Значительное расширение полосы пропускания АЦП, приобретаемого ценой снижения метрологических характеристик, возможно в его разомкнутой структуре при отсутствии канала интегрирования.
Ключевые слова: интегрирующий аналого-цифровой преобразователь, интегрирующий развертывающий преобразователь, преобразователь напряжения в частоту импульсов, широтно-импульсная модуляция, амплитудно-частотно-импульсная модуляция, бестактовое поразрядное уравновешивание, помехоустойчивость, система управления.
