VERY HIGH PRECISION DEVICE FOR MEASURING THE TIME A SIGNAL IS INPUT

摘要

The invention provides a device including a binary pulse input signal converter, the output of which is connected to a counter and to a delay line that includes a plurality of delay elements. The counter and the delay line also receive a clock signal as an input. The delay line is combined with a sampler and analog memory that includes a plurality of storage cells that receive the input signal as input. Each element of the a delay line includes an output connected to a corresponding storage cell of the analog so as to sequentially control the sampling and storage of the input signal in the storage cells.
