Abstract

Method for encoding analog signal into time intervals wherein a generation of time intervals using a time encoding machine. A signal of a constant value is held during a generated time interval on a time encoding machine input by the use of a sample-and-hold circuit, while the constant value of the signal held during the generated time interval represents an instantaneous value of the analog signal at the end of a generation of a previous time interval. Apparatus for encoding analog signal into time intervals comprising a time encoding machine, and a sample-and-hold circuit. The signal is provided to an input of the sample-and-hold circuit, whose output is connected to an output of the time encoding machine. The output of the time encoding machine is connected to an output of the apparatus, and to a control input of the sample-and-hold circuit.
