Abstract: Herein, we present a cyclic Vernier time-to-digital converter (TDC) using a pulse-shrinking inverter-assisted residue quantizer (IRQ). Previous pulse-shrinking techniques suffer from a ...
Abstract: Two gated ring oscillators (GROs) act as the delay lines in an improved Vernier time-to-digital converter (TDC), where the already small quantization noise of the standard Vernier TDC is ...
