Abstract :
A new design of the interpolating time counter implemented on a single FPGA chip with amorphous antifuse structures is presented. The counter contains two time-to-digital converters, each having 200 ps resolution (LSB) within 10 ns range, and the 32-bit, 100-MHz real-time counter, which is also utilized for frequency measurement
