Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure include a microcontroller with a processor, memory, and peripheral devices including a differential digital delay line analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The ADC includes differential digital delay lines, a circuit including a set of delay elements included in the differential digital delay lines, and another circuit including another set of delay elements included in the differential digital delay lines. The first circuit is configured to generate data representing an analog to digital conversion of an input. The second circuit is configured to calibrate a source to the differential digital delay lines.
