Abstract
A new frequency-to-code converter (fDC) circuit in which an input frequency fi is processed by successive approximation logic (SAL) to generate a proportional digital number is described in this letter. Several ingenious subcircuits plus the conventional sequencer clocked by the input hertz constitute the SAL fDC. Conversion time is equal to nTi where n is the number of bits in the output digital word and Ti is the period of the input hertz.
