This paper presents an automated procedure for
generation of high-level topologies for continuous-time
modulator system.
A functional topology of the system is generated from the given
transfer function model of the modulator.
Mathematical transformation technique is applied iteratively
over the initial topology to generate a functional topology
which is optimized for modulator sensitivity, hardware complexity
and relative power consumption.
This is then implemented using behavioral models of operational
transconductance amplifiers and capacitors.
The generated high-level topology is ensured to work with
reasonable accuracy under non-ideal conditions.
The entire procedure has been implemented in
Matlab/Simulink environment.
Numerical results have been provided to demonstrate the procedure.
