    Abstract: There is described a time-to-digital conversion scheme using an arrangement of delay elements based Time-to-Digital Converter, TDC (20), wherein dithering is built in the digital domain and introduced in the analog domain as a modulation of a supply voltage (TDC-supply) supplying delay elements of the TDC, each having a propagation delay which exhibits a dependency to their supply voltage.

    Abstract: A circuit (40) for analog-to-digital conversion is disclosed comprising multiplexed ADCs (44, 46). Dithering (16) is introduced (20) into the circuit before conversion and subtracted out (26) of the resulting digital output stream. Gain control feedback loops (50, 51, 52, 54) are employed to eliminate non-unity gain error of the dither signal and multiplexed ADC differential gain errors. Correlation (52) between the digital output stream and the dither signal is used to detect a non-unity condition and derive gain control feedback. Correlation with the dither signal is also used to detect gain differences between multiplexed ADCs and generate corrective feedback.

    Abstract: Technique destinée à améliorer la résolution d'un convertisseur analogique/numérique (30). Le signal analogique d'entrée est échantillonné pour générer un niveau analogique et le niveau analogique est maintenu (20) pendant un intervalle. Un signal de vibration (22) est superposé (23) au niveau maintenu pour générer une tension fluctuante. Cette tension fluctuante est alors échantillonnée (25) au moins N fois ou plus, et N valeurs échantillonnées sont communiquées au convertisseur A/N (30) de sorte que N valeurs numérisées sont générées. La moyenne de ces valeurs numérisées est établie (32) afin de produire un signal de sortie dont l'erreur de numérisation est réduite d'un facteur allant jusqu'à N1/2.

    Abstract: a A narrow bandwidth analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) system is described in the context of the color burst processing and burst phase detecting circuitry of a digital color television receiver. The ADC (14) includes a dither generator which adds a dither signal to either the analog input signal (10) or to the reference signal (38) used by the ADC. This dither signal increases in magnitude by 1/16 of an LSB value at a rate one-quarter of the burst frequency and changes in sign at one-half of the burst frequency. This signal passes through a low-pass filter (18) in the chrominance channel providing an increase in sample resolution by averaging the samples in a chroma band-pass filter and in the phase detecting circuitry (30).

    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving efficiency of a data converter. An example method generates a noise signal, alters the spectrum of the noise signal based on operation of an associated data converter, and supplies the altered spectrum noise signal to the associated data converter. The data converter is a digital-to-analog converter or an analog-to-digital converter. The altered spectrum noise signal is notched at frequencies of interest. The spectrum is altered by sending a signal generated by a random number generator to a delay device and adding the output of the delay device from the output of the random number generator. Also, the spectrum is altered by seeding first and second identical random number generators, delaying the operation of the first random number generator, and adding the output of the delayed first random number generator from the second random number generator.
