Abstract

The considerable influence of the pulse stretcher on the differential linearity of a weighted converter is shown and discussed. Theoretical histograms are derived from the relationship between the channel-width and the stretcher slope. Finally, we describe a circuit which carries out a new sequence of successive comparisons, entirely eliminating the influence of the stretcher on the differential linearity. Experimental spectra obtained through this method confirm the theoretical predictions.
