A time domain switching analog-to-digital converter apparatus and methods of utilizing the same. In one implementation, the converter apparatus comprises a carrier signal source, and at least one reference source. The carrier signal is summed with the input signal and the summed modulated signal is fed to a comparator circuit. The comparator is configured detects crossings of the reference level by the modulated waveform thereby generating trigger events. The time period between consecutive trigger events is used to obtain modulated signal deviation due to the input signal thus enabling input signal measurement. Control of the carrier oscillation amplitude and frequency enables real time adjustment of the converter dynamic range and resolution. The use of additional reference signal levels increases sensor frequency response and accuracy. A dual channel converter apparatus enables estimation and removal of common mode noise, thereby improving signal conversion accuracy.

Time domain switched analog-to-digital converter apparatus and methods

An antenna apparatus includes a spiral metallic pattern formed on a portion of a circuit board on a first side thereof, the spiral pattern being formed of four arms, each arm having a contact location near the center of the spiral; a plurality of pin and ground connectors attached to a second side of said circuit board and electrically connected to the ones of the spiral arms at the contact locations thereof, said pins being connected to said arms via holes in said circuit board.
