Various implementations described herein are directed to a device with a voltage-controlled oscillator that receives an enable signal, receives a reset signal, and provides internal pulse signals including one or more coarse internal pulse signals and multiple fine internal pulse signals. The device may have a coarse sampler that receives the one or more coarse internal pulse signal and provides a coarse sampled output signal. The device may have a fine sampler that receives the multiple fine internal pulse signals and provides a fine sampled output signal.

Digital sampling techniques

A single-phase flip-flop comprising: a master latch comprising: a first circuit to generate a master latch signal in response to a first master logic operation on a flip flop input signal and a first clock signal, and a second circuit to generate a master output signal in response to a second master logic operation on the first clock signal and master latch signal; a slave latch comprising: a third circuit to generate a slave output signal in response to a first slave logic operation on the first clock signal and one of the master output signal and an inverted slave output signal; and wherein the master latch is configured to capture the flip-flop input signal during a first portion of the first clock signal and the slave latch is configured to capture the master output signal during a second portion of the first clock signal.
