    Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes a first comparator, a second comparator, and a decision timing comparison logic unit. The first comparator is configured to output a first output voltage and the second comparator is configured to output a second output voltage during a same binary algorithmic iteration of the ADC. The decision timing comparison logic unit is configured to identify a first polarity of the first output voltage and a second polarity of the second output voltage and, if the first polarity is equivalent to a second polarity, to insert at least one redundant capacitor for a next binary algorithmic iteration of the ADC.

    Abstract: A method is provided. A first edge on a first gating signal is generated, and a local oscillator and a shared clocking circuit with the first edge on the first gating signal. A second edge on a second gating signal is generated following the first edge on the first gating signal, and a receiver circuit is activated with the second edge on the second gating signal, where the receiver circuit includes a mixer. A transmit pulse following the first edge on the first gating signal is generated with the transmit pulse having a third edge. A switch that short circuits outputs of the mixer is then released following the later of the third edge of the transmit pulse and a delay.
