Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a converter () converting a voltage (Vin) into time. The converter comprises a direct path () including a first injection-locked oscillator () and a first circuit (). The first circuit is configured for receiving an output signal (Φsens) of the first oscillator and a reference signal (Φ), and for providing at least a first pulse signal (out) determined by a phase shift between the output signal (Φsens) of the first oscillator and the reference signal (Φ). The converter further comprises a feedback loop () comprising a second circuit () configured for integrating said at least one first pulse signal (out).
