Power and signal-to-noise ratio regulation in a vco-adc

Abstract

A voltage-controlled oscillator analog-to-digital converter (VCO-ADC) includes a first source follower coupled between a first input terminal and a first internal node; a first VCO having an input coupled to a second internal node; a first variable resistor coupled between the first internal node and the second internal node; and a digital signal processing component coupled between an output of the first VCO and a output terminal.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
