This application relates to time-encoding modulators (TEMs). A TEM receives an input signal (S.sub.IN) and outputs a time-encoded output signal (S.sub.OUT). A filter arrangement receives the input signal and also a feedback signal (S.sub.FB) from the TEM output, and generates a filtered signal (S.sub.FIL) based, at least in part, on the feedback signal. A comparator receives the filtered signal and outputs a time-encoded signal (S.sub.PWM) based at least in part on the filtered signal. The time encoding modulator is operable in a first mode with the filter arrangement configured as an active filter and in a second mode with the filter arrangement configured as a passive filter. The filter arrangement may include an op-amp, capacitance and switch network. In the first mode the op-amp is enabled, and coupled with the capacitance to provide the active filter. In the second mode the op-amp is disabled and the capacitance is coupled to a signal path for the feedback signal to provide a passive filter.

Disclosed is receiver for a noise limited system. A front-end circuit amplifies and band-limits an incoming signal. The amplification increases the signal swing but introduces both thermal and flicker noise. A low-pass band limitation reduces the thermal noise component present at frequencies above what is necessary for correctly receiving the transmitted symbols. This band limited signal is provided to the integrator circuit. The output of the integrator is equalized to reduce the effects of inter-symbol interference and then sampled. The samples are used to apply low frequency equalization (i.e., in response to long and/or unbalanced strings of symbols) to mitigate the effects of DC wander caused by mismatches between the number of symbols of each kind being received.
