An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is a device that can include a reference shuffler and a loop filter. An ADC can achieve better performance with incremental adjustment of a pointer of the reference shuffler, changing coefficients of the loop filter, and storing calibration codes of the ADC in a non-volatile memory. By incrementally adjusting a pointer of the reference shuffler, a calibration can be performed more efficiently than with a random adjustment of the pointer. By temporarily changing the loop filter coefficients, a greater amount of activity can be introduced into the loop filter. This activity can allow the calibration to proceed more efficiently. By storing the calibration codes in a non-volatile memory, a search space for calibration codes can be reduced. Thus, a calibration can occur more quickly, and the calibration itself can be improved.

In general, techniques are described for optimizations to resolver-to-digital signal converters. Processing circuitry comprising a delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter and a fixed-point signal processor may perform the techniques. The delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter may be communicatively coupled to a fixed-point digital signal processor and electrically coupled to a resolver sensor attached to a rotating element controlled by the processing circuitry, where the delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter is configured to obtain, based on electrical interactions with the resolver sensor, a digital cosine value for an indirectly sensed angle of the rotating element and a digital sine value for the indirectly sensed angle of the rotating element. The fixed-point digital signal processor may be configured to implement a fixed-point Luenberger Observer resolver-to-digital converter configured to obtain, based on the digital sine value and the digital cosine value, via fixed-point mathematical operations, an approximate angle of the rotating element.
