Abstract
A device having a first oscillator circuit configured to generate a first signal with a first frequency based on an analog input and external characteristics, and a second oscillator circuit configured to generate a second signal with a second frequency based on a constant voltage and the external characteristics. The device also having one or more discrete logic gates configured to generate a digital composite signal based on the first signal and the second signal, such that a number of transitions in the digital composite signal over a period of time, based on the first frequency of the first signal, are indicative of the analog input.
