  • Abstract
    An algorithmic analogue/digital convertor using current rather than voltage as the signal is proposed. A 6-bit prototype was fabricated using a standard 3 μm CMOS process. The circuit exhibited a sampling rate of 200 kHz while only requiring 0.38 mm2 of chip area and 4.65 mW of power, making it well suited for use in larger VLSI systems
