Abstract:Time-to-Digital Converters (TDCs) are major components for the measurements of time intervals. Recent developments in Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) have enabled the opportunity to implement highperformance TDCs, which were only possible using dedicated hardware. In order to eliminate empty histogram bins and achieve a higher level of linearity, FPGA-based TDCs typically apply compensation methods either using multiple delay lines consuming more resources or postprocessing, leading to a permanent loss of… Show more
