Abstract :
A novel circuit configuration for indirect or slope-type analog-to-digital converters (ADC´s) is described. Due to the simplicity of the analog requirements, this technique lends itself to implementation in a single low-cost single-polarity MOS chip. A breadboard version has been operated with 11 bit accuracy at a sample rate of 20/s.
