Self-timing analog-to-digital converting system

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract of the Disclosure, A substantially constant current is divided between two lines in accordance with the relative values of an input voltage and a reference voltage respectively introduced to such lines. The currents through the first and second lines respectively charge first and second capacitances. The charges in the first and second capacitances respectively control the magnitudes of the currents flowing through first and second control members to charge the first and second capacitances. The control members are interconnected so that any difference between the flow of current through the control members and the associated capacitances becomes magnified. When the charge in an …
