Abstract
Differences between samples are optimally quantized in such a way that the maximum possible difference between samples is equal to the full range of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The differential analog-to-digital conversion uses fewer bits in an integrated ADC architecture than prior-art solutions for a given level of quantization noise, thereby enabling faster implementations with both lower power consumption and smaller layout area.
