A continuous-time delta-sigma modulator includes a loop filter, a quantizer, a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, and a digital to analog converter. The loop filter integrates a difference between an input signal and a feedback signal. The quantizer quantizes a signal output from the loop filter to convert the quantized signal into a digital signal. The FIR filter performs an FIR filtering process on the digital signal output from the quantizer. The digital to analog converter converts a signal output from the FIR filter into an analog signal and outputs the converted analog signal as a feedback signal.
