Abstract

See full text

A time to digital converter includes: a first measurement unit measuring a time difference between a start signal and a stop signal as a first time unit by using a first delay line; a second measurement unit measuring a time difference between the stop signal and the start signal delayed by the first delay line as a second time unit by using a second delay line and a third delay line and comparing an output signal of one delay cell included in the second delay line with an output signal of at least two delay cells included in the third delay line; and an output unit outputting a final time difference between the start signal and the stop signal as a digital code on the basis of measurement results of the first measurement unit and the second measurement unit.
