Abstract:For achieving a highly-durable sensor ASIC with high performance and low cost, an all-digital sensor ADC using a time-domain processor TAD (Time A/D converter) is presented. Generally, measuring travel time of signals (e.g., light pulses, radio and ultrasonic waves, etc.) should be done under various stringent conditions (i.e., high ambient temperature) in automobiles, heavy-machinery and resource exploration systems, for example. Therefore, to realize wide-range temperature durability, sensor ADC circuits sho… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
