• And here is the point: the noise varies depending where those<br />

state variables are:<br />

– As the modulator makes a transition from outputting say 1kHz<br />

-30db, to say 20kHz -10db, the state variables move from the<br />

repeating pattern needed to make 1k, to the repeating pattern<br />

needed to make 20k. And as they do, they move through regions<br />

of high and low noise<br />

– In the background, as the modulator chages between two PSS's<br />

it generates a variable pattern of noise<br />

– ►ΣΔ makes a variable (but still very low) amplitude “ffssst”<br />

noise as the state variables transition though noisy space<br />
