I designed a second-order sigma delat Converter. In my simulation, input is 500Hz sinwave, simulation time is 20ms. I did the dft for the same 1-bit output stream with different setups. And I got different results:

1. The data used for dft is from 2m to 6m, frequency data point is 4096, I got 80dB at 500Hz.
2. The data used for dft is from 2m to 18m, frequency data point is 8192, I got 45dB at 500Hz.

Problem here is, I don't know how to set up the waveform time window and how many points for dft.

Thanks for any comments!
