Multiple-Quantum Interference Superconducting Analog-To-Digital Converter

US Patent:
4315255, Feb 9, 1982
Filed:
Oct 27, 1980
Appl. No.:
6/201669
Inventors:
Richard E. Harris - Boulder CO
Clark A. Hamilton - Boulder CO
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
H03K 1302
US Classification:
340347AD
Abstract:
An analog-to-digital converter using superconducting interferometers connected in parallel, each interferometer being identical. The coupling of the analog signal to each successive interferometer is increased in the ratio of 1:2:4:8:16:32:, etc. The application of a pulsed power supply to the parallel connected interferometer generates output voltages on the interferometers. The output voltages are a Gray Code representation of the analog signal.
