Abstract :
Two economical video-speed A/D converter architectures are presented. The output is generated in cascaded or recycled flash quantization blocks. A simple priority encoder, that comprises two gate levels, is suggested. The obtainable throughput rates should satisfy the requirements of a wide spectrum of video applications. Due to their simple hardware, the proposed architectures are amenable for monolithic integration
