ABSTRACT:
A differential mode time to digital converter uses a pair of symmetric capacitors and a pair of constant currents to generate two charging curves with the same characteristics. By charging the capacitors at different timings to produce a voltage difference between the capacitors, and then holding and amplifying the voltage difference, a relationship between time and the digital signal is obtained, thereby reducing the effects of temperature on the electronic element and providing a high noise immunity, short conversion time, and high linearity.
