摘要
A time-to-digital converter (TDC) with 32 ps LSB and 2.5 mu s measurement range has been implemented in a 0.8 mu m BiCMOS process. The TDC is based on a main counter and two separate time digitizers for interpolation inside the clock period. The clock frequency of the counter is 100 MHz and the interpolators are based on dual-slope conversion. According to test results, the stop single-shot resolution of the TDC is 30ps (sigma-value) and nonlinearity is less than +/-5 ps when input time intervals range from 5 ns to 2.5 mu s. The conversion time is < 6.3 mu s. Temperature drift, excluding the temperature dependence of the oscillator, is below +/- 40 ps in a temperature range of -40 - +60 degrees C. The size of this chip, including pads, is 3.3 mm x 3.4 mm and its power consumption is 350 mW.
