  • Abstract
    This paper introduces a new Level-Crossing ADC (LCADC) architecture which employs the novel use of a clocked comparator. The proposed LCADC can measure a timing noise spectrum with wide dynamic range and wide frequency range. An extension of the underlying theory of the performance measurement of an LCADC is also included.
