ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER WITH INTERPOLATION

Abstract:

An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) including: a signal input adapted to receive an analog signal; a first reference voltage input adapted to receive a first reference voltage; a second reference voltage input adapted to receive a second reference voltage, the second reference voltage is different than the first reference voltage; a first delay circuit having a first delay input coupled to the signal input, a second delay input coupled to the first reference voltage input, a first delay output and a second delay output; a second delay circuit having a third delay input coupled to the signal input, a fourth delay input coupled to the second reference voltage input; a third delay output and a fourth delay output; a first comparator having a first comparator input coupled to the first delay output, a second comparator input coupled to the second delay output and a first comparator output; and a second comparator having a third comparator input coupled to the third delay output, a fourth comparator input coupled to the fourth delay output and a second comparator output.
