Abstract:
A Traveling Pulse Wave Quantization method is provided for converting a time sensitive signal to a digital value. A first stop signal is delayed by a first time delay, a first plurality of times, to create a delayed first stop signal. A clock signal is delayed by a second time delay, a first plurality of times, to create a delayed clock signal first period. Each second time delay is associated with a corresponding first time delay, and the second time delay is greater than the first time delay. When the delayed first stop signal occurs before the delayed clock signal first period, a count of the delays is stopped and converted into a digital or thermometer value. An accurate resampled value is provided regardless of the duration in delay between the first stop signal and a second stop signal that is accepted after the first stop signal.
