Abstract :
This paper presents the design and implementation of Constant-Fraction-Discriminators (CFD) suitable for multi-channel mixed-mode ICs. Issues related to area occupation, power consumption and timing accuracy are discussed in detail. The circuits have been designed targeting a 0.13μm CMOS process.
