    Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter (“ADC”). The ADC includes a bank of comparators and a window controller. The window controller is coupled to the bank of comparators to selectively activate first comparators of the bank of comparators associated with a window size and to selectively inactivate second comparators of the bank of comparators.

    Abstract: An apparatus relating generally to voltage conversion includes an amplifier coupled to receive an input voltage and a reference voltage. First and second converters are coupled to the amplifier to receive a bias voltage. The first converter includes a first transconductor coupled to receive the bias voltage to adjust a first tail current, and a first differential input. A first inverter of the first converter has a first feedback device coupled input-to-output to provide a first transimpedance amplifier load. The first inverter is coupled to the first transconductor. The second converter includes a second transconductor coupled to receive the bias voltage to adjust a second tail current, and a second differential input. A second inverter of the second converter has a second feedback device coupled input-to-output to provide a second transimpedance amplifier load. The second inverter is coupled to the second transconductor.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a dynamic quantizer circuit including a tail voltage supply magnitude (VTAIL) distinct from a general supply voltage (Avcc/Avss), VTAIL providing power to a tail clock buffer to generate tail clock signals to tail devices. In an illustrative example, a compensation processor may control a regulator producing a determined VTAIL value in response to one or more parametric signals, for example, the Avcc voltage value, a circuit temperature and a transistor speed process (TSP). The TSP signal may be determined, for example, by process-dependent circuit devices. The compensation processor may be, for example, configured to lower VTAIL in response to detecting a worst-case RMS noise corner, or to raise VTAIL in response to detecting a worst-case clock-to-q corner. Various adjustable VTAILs may be configured to continuously optimize RMS noise, offset and speed performance with low power consumption in various quantizers over process, voltage and/or temperature.
