Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of time-domain ADC integrated circuit design, in particular to a high-precision voltage-time converter (VTC) for converting voltage signals into time signals. Background technique [0002] With the progress of the semiconductor process, non-ideal factors such as thermal noise in the analog circuit have not improved with the improvement of the process, and the gain bandwidth and linearity of the operational amplifier in the analog circuit have also weakened. In view of factors such as the limited performance of voltage-domain ADCs during the continuous improvement of semiconductor technology, time-domain ADCs have the advantages of high resolution, small area, simple structure, and low power consumption. As an important part of time-domain ADC, VTC converts continuous voltage signals into time signals. Its conversion accuracy determines the quantization accuracy of time-domain ADC. VTC has become the focus of current r...
