  1. A linear delta modulator is designed to operate on speech signals limited to 3.4 kHz. The sampling rate is 10 time the Nyquist rate of the speech signal. The step size δ = 0·62 is 100 mV. The modulator is tested with a 1 kHz sinusoidal signal. The maximum amplitude of this test signal required to avoid slope overload is—
    1. 2.04 V
    2. 1.08 V
    3. 4.08 V
    4. 2.16 V
Correct Option: B
