Abstract
At least one asymmetry element is configured to receive an input signal and is coupled to a first branch of a bi-stable flip-flop comprising the first branch and a second branch. An asymmetry between the first branch and the second branch depends on the input signal. A value indicative of the input signal is determined based on received output signals of a plurality of readout events.
