Abstract
An analog to digital converter including a plurality of multiple independent gate field effect transistors (MIGFET) that provide a plurality of digital output signals, is provided. Each MIGFET of the plurality of MIGFETs may have first gate for receiving an analog signal, a second gate for being biased, and a current electrode for providing a digital output signal from among the plurality of the digital output signals. Each MIGFET of the plurality of MIGFETs may have a combination of body width, channel length that is unique among the plurality of MIGFETs to result in a threshold voltage that is unique among the plurality of MIGFETs. A digital to analog converter including a plurality of MIGFETs is also provided.
