ABSTRACT:
A digital time converter with an embodiment including a coarse measuring circuit and a fine measuring circuit. The fine measuring circuit allows an accurate determination of the temporal position of an event inside a period of the time base, by interpolation or averaging of sinusoids in quadrature, sampled coincidentally with a burst of impulses generated by the converter's triggering circuit.
