Abstract :
A method for on-chip adjustment of Josephson-junction comparator thresholds is presented. Experimental results confirming the proper function of this circuit are discussed. The use of this circuit in an A/D converter allows individual thresholds to be programmed and compensates all circuit processing variations.<>
