Abstract :
In this article, a voltage/frequency converter with dynamic offset trimming is presented. This converter is simple in structure, good in accuracy and low in power consumption. It is realized in a 1.2 μ BiCMOS technology. The result of test shows that an offset reduction as smaller as 600 μV can be obtained
